Spring Break Newport Beach
Spring break transforms Newport Beach into one of Southern California's most vibrant destinations, as families, college students, and visitors from across the country descend on the beaches, harbor, and village areas. The weather is typically spectacular — warm, clear days with the Pacific at its most inviting. Beach volleyball tournaments, surf competitions, and outdoor concerts fill the calendar, while restaurants and shops extend their hours to accommodate the influx of visitors. It is the perfect time to experience Newport Beach at its most energetic and social.
