Corona del Mar State Beach, affectionately known as 'Big Corona' by locals, is a scenic enclave with dramatic cliffs, gentle surf, and a wide, family-friendly beach. According to the Los Angeles Times and local favorite OC Weekly, it’s ideal for swimming, volleyball, and watching boats drift into Newport Harbor. The adjacent tide pools and rock jetties attract explorers of all ages, and the charming village of Corona del Mar offers independent cafes and boutiques within walking distance. Evening bonfires are a cherished tradition here, drawing the community together as the sun sets.
