About Balboa Beach & Pier
If you are looking for something extra, this fun historic district boasts shops, restaurants, and a terminal for Catalina Island at the Balboa Pavilion. The Pavilion has a gift shop, restaurant, and banquet room. There is the Balboa Fun Zone with a ferris wheel, rides, and candy shops. Also, enjoy the Pier Plaza and Peninsula Park, which has a bandstand, baseball diamonds, soccer field, playground, picnic tables, and grills. A boardwalk runs along the bay to the Newport Harbor Yacht Club. All the way at the end of the peninsula is West Jetty Park, which overlooks the Wedge, a popular but dangerous surfing spot.
Beach access is available at the end of most streets as the Balboa area at the end of the Newport Beach Peninsula. The pier area has lots of parking for you and your family.
