What To Do?
Posted: Mon April 6, 2009 11:23 AM UTC

Hi all,

I'm going to be in Newport Beach from the 16th to the 20th of April with my wife and three year old. I was hoping somebody who knows the area could suggest ways to keep a 3 y.o. entertained as well as some other must-do's and restaurants? What's the weather like this time of year?

Thanks.

Balboa Boat Parade parking question
Posted: Mon November 3, 2008 03:53 AM UTC

I'm hoping to attend the 2008 Balboa Christmas Boat Parade, but I've heard that parking on the island is impossible during that time because of the crowds. Does anyone know whether it would be feasible to park in the ferry parking lot in Newport Beach, or is that likely to be full as well? (I would be planning to cross over to the island around 4 PM for the 6:30 parade start time.) Thanks!

Any suggestions from the locals?

Now,I would want to only know two little things :

Are the Newport Beach's houses much expensive?
Is this city well connected with the other cities of California?

PS Because the next year I will leave Italy, now I'm trying to search new friendships in California.If anyone of you want to know me better,contact me freely!

Spending In Newport
Posted: Mon March 28, 2005 10:09 PM UTC

Hi, im coming over from England next year and im staying in Newport Beach for around 3 months. i have guestimated that i will spend around $2300 per month (based on cheap food, rented room in house and a few nights out) do you think this is realistic or am i way off?
Thanks
