Laguna Beach Travel Guide
Welcome to Laguna Beach!
All beaches are not created equal, as most residents of California's Orange County can attest. While Huntington Beach is well-known for its surfing activities, Laguna Beach lies 16 miles further south and is internationally known as a seaside haven for artists. During the late 1920s, almost half of the 300 permanent residents were artists, and many Hollywood actors maintained residences in the town. Today, Laguna Beach offers some of the best scuba diving in Southern California and is frequented by environmentalists and vacationers, as well as artists. Visitors can browse through the collections of over 40 local art galleries and attend some of the community art events—like the Sawdust Art Festival—that are featured throughout the year. Golfers find their haven at the Aliso Creek Golf Course and walkers, cyclists and nature-lovers find pleasure in the many local parks and the seven miles of beach.
