Attractions-To-Newport-Beach

Even though Newport Beach has many attractions, one
of the most popular is the beaches.  There are
beaches on the peninsula and in Corona del Mar.  On
the peninsula, there is the infamous spot “The Wedge”,
which is great for body surfing.

From the Balboa Peninsula to Avalon, there is the
Catalina Flyer.  This 500 passenger giant provides
the daily transportation.  For residents, the Flyer
is the preferred means of transportation.

The Balboa Fun Zone is a great attraction as well,
offering a ferris wheel, merry-go-round, bumper cars,
and several shops and restaurants.  Located on the
Balboa Peninsula, the Fun Zone is great for kids.

The island of Balboa is actually an artificial
island found in Newport Harbor.  The island was dredged
and filled shortly before World War 1.  Between the
island and the peninsula, the Balboa Island Ferry
works to transport pedestrians and their belongings.

Newport Beach also offers a wildlife sanctuary, known
as the Back Bay.  Nearby, Fashion Island helps to
provide shopping experiences for those who like to
shop and splurge.

For many reasons, Newport Beach is very worthy of a
visit or a vacation.  Even though it’s one of the
undiscovered treasures of California, there is plenty
to be found here.  If you’ve been looking for an area
with lots of attractions, look for further than Newport
Beach.

Pelican Hill Golf Course

On the Newport Coast, standing high above the Pacific
Ocean is one of the best golf courses in the California
area.  Boasting a very nice golf course, the finest
services and amenities, and superb dining, Pelican
Hill Golf Course provides one of the best experiences
of golf and after golf.

With 2 golf courses, the course will provide challenges
to beginners and avid golf players alike.  While both
are great courses, the toughest decision you’ll make
is deciding which one to play first.  Even though you
can go back and play the course you didn’t select later,
choosing the one to start with is almost as fun as
playing.

The North Course
The North Course of the Pelican Golf Course reflects
a classic Scottish style, almost floating around an
elevated plateau.  The drastic elevation changes help
to create spectacular views of both the Pacific Ocean
and the Newport Harbor.

Staying true to the ingenious design philosophy, the
landscape here plays a major role in the challenge and
the overall beauty of the North Course.  Golfers all
around the world enjoy playing the North Course, as
the design here is better than most golf courses out
there.

The South Course
Set high above the Pacific, the South Course is also
ranked among the top golf courses in the entire Newport
Beach area.  The South Course offers breathtaking ocean
views, pine trees, manicured fairways, and a nice
soaring eucalyptus.

On the South Course you’ll also find challenging greens
submerged by strategically placed bunkers.  The design
of the course here included rolling terrain, canyon
crossing tee shots, and holes that border the cliffs
of the California coast.

Both courses are very set in their unique designs, using
the terrain and topology to golf players challenges
they simply won’t find elsewhere.  While many golf courses
use the field to add to the playing experience, Pelican
Hill uses many different tools.  The result is a game
of golf that will leave you wanting more.
