Things to Do Around Southern California

Newport Beach and Orange County, California have a well-earned reputation for fun and adventure under the sun, and the area immediately surrounding the resort lives up to that reputation. The beach is just down the hill, where you can surf, swim, sunbathe, or rent a boat or kayak for the day.

The Pelican Hill Golf Club is next door to the resort and is a sure draw for anyone wanting to get in a tee time during their vacation. Likewise, for the outdoor lover, Crystal Cove State Park is only two miles up the road from these Marriott timeshare resales.

Some of the top daytime activities in the area also include jet skiing, hiking, bicycling, sailing, and even whale-watching. You can rent a bicycle and take a leisurely two-wheeled tour of Newport Beach, join a whale-watching boat tour, or take a hike through the beautiful landscape surrounding Marriott's Newport Coast Villas.

If shopping, dining, and upscale boutiques are more your style, the Newport Coast has been luring visitors in with those enticements for over a century. Fashion Island, in particular, is a haven for shoppers seeking the thrill of hundreds of shops including Gucci, Chanel, and Armani stores.

Fun for the Kids

If you've brought along younger children, then there are also many attractions sure to delight all ages. The Balboa Fun Zone, on the Balboa Peninsula, has carnival rides, snacks, a ferry, and places to sign up for excursions further out on the Pacific, such as day cruises and whale watching tours.

Next to the Balboa Fun Zone is the Balboa Pier, where you will find fishing, restaurants, and some shopping. The Wedge, a popular surfing destination, is located on the eastern side of the Balboa Peninsula.

While it is no longer the surfing destination it once was, Corona Del Mar State Beach is still a popular place to visit for swimming, scuba diving, sunbathing, and picnicking. Its picturesque scenery has made it film-worthy and is worth taking the family to for an afternoon for pictures and fun.

Nearby, the Sherman Library & Gardens is a treat for all the senses. Carefully curated gardens feature plants from all around the world, as well as a koi pond, rose garden, fountains, waterfalls, and other delights.

Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, and Legoland California are all within two hours’ drive from the resort. The convenient day trips are fun for all ages, and definitely worth the drive for families wanting to experience Southern California's top theme parks for themselves.

The resort’s 24-hour, bi-lingual front desk is always on hand to help you plan your day trips, check in for flights, and offer directions.

Good Times to Visit Your Marriott Timeshare

The busiest, and arguably the best, time to visit Newport Beach is during the summer months. From June through August, sunny skies and warm weather make spending entire days surfing, swimming, and boating pure bliss.

At seven miles long, Newport Beach has plenty of space for all the people flocking to its sandy shores, and these southern California timeshares become a ticket to paradise. During these months, you will find the most nightlife, the best outdoor weather, and lots of excitement for your vacation.

The shoulder seasons in Newport Beach run typically from September through December, and also typically from March through May.

If you want to celebrate the holidays at Marriott's Newport Coast Villas, there is a lot to see and do from October through December. Newport Beach has Halloween parties, Christmas Yacht parties, holiday lights, and plenty of cheer. Expect other families to want to enjoy the winter break here too, and perhaps escape colder weather to the north.

Temperatures around Newport Beach tend to drop to around 50 degrees F during the winter, so once the parties stop at the end of December, tourism in the area slumps during January and February, making these two months the slowest of the year.

You may not find as much to see and do around the tourist parts of town, however, some of the year-round attractions may be more enjoyable without the bustle of other travelers. If you are looking for a deal at Marriott's Newport Coast Villas, and don't mind the cool weather at the beaches, then these months might be your best time to visit.
