Harbor Living neighborhood — Newport Beach, California

Harbor Living

Life on the water in Newport Harbor — from waterfront estates to live-aboard yachts and the unique culture of harbor island communities.

Newport Harbor is one of the largest small-craft harbors in the United States, and the communities that have grown up around it represent a unique way of life that is deeply connected to the water. From the grand waterfront estates of Lido Isle and Linda Isle to the more modest but equally charming homes of Balboa Island and the Peninsula, harbor living in Newport Beach encompasses a remarkable range of lifestyles united by a shared relationship with the water. The harbor's 9,000+ boats, its yacht clubs, its annual events calendar, and its network of waterfront restaurants and businesses create a community culture that is unlike anywhere else in California.

Harbor Living is one of those rare places where the beauty of the setting and the quality of the community reinforce each other — a place that rewards those who take the time to explore it properly.
