Newport Beach/Corona Del Mar

Newport Beach parks and playgrounds can be found from the neighborhoods and beaches of Corona del Mar to the hilltops of Newport Coast.

Some of the favorite parks for families in Newport Beach are the neighborhood ones like Grant Howald Park, Irvine Terrace Park, and San Miguel Park. Pickleball is one of the main reasons Bonita Canyon Sports Park is popular.

The destination playground in Newport Beach is Marina Park on the Balboa Peninsula with its lighthouse design and slide.

The life-sized white rabbit sculptures at Newport Beach Civic Center Park are always a favorite in spring. Coastal Peak Park is up in Newport Coast with sweeping views of Orange County.

Muth Interpretive Center and the Upper Newport Bay are amazing places to witness the biodiversity Orange County offers in its open spaces.
