-Corona Del Mar State Beach -Whale watching!! -St.John Vianney Chapel -Little Corona Beach -Fashion Island
Open today: 6:00 AM - 10:00 PM Sunday night at Inspiration Point, sharing the top of the hill with several hundred others to watch the BIG RED BALL sink into the low grey clouds and disappear. We must have done this a thousand times. Some nights extremely clear, some so foggy you begin to wonder what you are up here trying to see. Last night across the channel, you could watch the waves breaking at the WEDGE. Not quite coming over the top of the jetty, maybe a splash of white foam. Got lucky and found a place to park, without driving back and forth on Ocean Blvd. When we first came here 50 years ago, small single story beach cottages lined the streets with lawns and roses. Used for summer resident vacations. Today it is a bit different, with zero lot line, two story, mansions lined up next to each other. And seemingly used rarely by their owners, their gardeners continue to take perfect care of the property.

I love this beach. Small but amazing and perfect for sunsets. Great restaurants near by and so charming

Food scene

We enjoyed our afternoon on the island. The homes are from island life back in the day and fun to drive past. Downtown is charming with lots of cute shops and restaurants owned by locals - not national chains. It is a step back in time we really enjoyed
