Put on your walking shoes for a moderate stroll around Balboa Island, the little community right in the middle of Newport Harbor!
It takes about an hour to walk the perimeter of this little island, filled with cute cottages and luxury beach homes. After the walk we'll take the Balboa Ferry across to the beach to visit the pier over the Pacific.
We'll end our morning trek with lunch at The Lighthouse Cafe, Newport's brand-new, harbor view restaurant.
