Blending the principles of preserved natural beauty with contemporary manmade architecture, defines this picturesque area of Newport Beach perfectly. Located at the southern most tip of Newport Beach, you'll find the newest urban developments in the city—including the ultra-luxurious new Resort at Pelican Hill (opening fall 2008) perched above 500 acres on the Newport Coast, a shopping plaza with an ocean view, an array of fine restaurants, and a championship golf course with views of the Pacific from nearly every hole.

Across the way you'll be pleasantly surprised to find an entirely different community that takes you back to the bygone days of California. The Crystal Cove State Park and Historic District is comprised of 3.5 miles of pristine uninterrupted coastline, favored by hikers, campers and trailblazers. The Crystal Cove Historic District is an enclave of 46 vintage rustic coastal cottages originally built in the 1920's and 1930's nestled around the mouth of Los Trancos Creek. It is one of the last remaining examples of early 20th century Southern California coastal development.
