Beautiful Sunset in Newport Beach
Beautiful Sunset in Newport Beach
We finally have sunshine here in Newport Beach after a very gloomy June and into July. The temperatures have been warm the past few days and there has been an increase in moisture. There were even some showers yesterday. However, all that moisture makes for very beautiful sunsets. Last night, I took some photos from in the Newport Shores in Newport Beach of the beautiful sunset.
The humidity is supposed be around through tomorrow, so the Newport Beach area feels a bit tropical right now.
Early this morning, there were several rainbows. 
Hope you are enjoying the weather, and take some photos!

Surf’s Up at Southern California Beaches
Surf’s Up at Southern California Beaches
This week has been glorious with warm weather and sunshine in the Newport Beach area. Last Sunday, on Valentine’s day, we rode our bikes to the Huntington Beach Pier to enjoy the California Sunshine and get some exercise at the same time. Huntington Beach is known as surf city.

There was a good swell on Sunday, and there were lots of surfers out. The surfers surf right by the Huntington Beach pier, and it is a great opportunity to watch them. The pier was lined with observers.
As usual, Main Street in Huntington Beach was crowded with lots of people enjoying the weather and Valentines Day.
If you are looking for warmer weather, you might consider the coastal communities in Orange County including Newport Beach and Huntington Beach for a visit, or to live. If I can answer any questions about Newport Beach or Huntington Beach, please contact me.

There is a beautifully hardscaped entry to Cameo Shores located at the entrance to Cameo Shores. The homes in Cameo Shores are all terraced to maximize the view overlooking the Pacific Ocean. There is only one street at the top where the homes do not have the ocean views. There are height restrictions on how high they can be built so that the home owner’s can maintain their views.
Many of the homes in Cameo Shores in Corona del Mar provide the illusion of being see through. With a court yard type of entry, typically these homes have large windows to see the views right as you walk in. As I stated before, when the homes were originally built in the 1960’s, they were all one story. Residents are able to maintain that height restriction, and now they are building down to maximize the square footage and living space because of the terraced lots.
Cameo Shores in Corona del Mar has a park called Roxbury Park for children and get togethers. There are three private beaches for the residents of Cameo Shores and Cameo Highlands (which is located across the street from Cameo Shores). The beach has beautiful rock formations that creates a very picturesque view.

1000 Steps Beach in Laguna Beach
1000 Steps Beach in Laguna Beach is a beautiful beach that does have public access. Theere are approximately 230 steps to the sand, and it is steep, however beautiful. There are bushes and plants which have grown over the stairs creating a tunnel like effect. The beach itself is amazing with beautiful rock formations, and caves for exploring other coves.
Real Estate with forever views at 1000 Steps Beach
1000 Steps Beach which is located at 9th and Coast Highway in South Laguna Beach is a worthwhile visit. The entry to the beach itself is unusual. There was no lifeguard on duty when we were there yesterday, and the ocean conditions were rough with large waves, and a strong under tow. However, the temperature was warm. My advice is to swim near a manned lifeguard tower for your safety.
There is some very beautiful real estate over looking 1000 Steps Beach. These homes have spectacular views of the ocean. They also have stairs down to the beach, and some of the homes even have trams to go up and down the steep mountainside. Additionally, there are some homes located right on the sand.
Home on the Sand at 1000 Steps Beach
There were a number of people working out on the stairs, and it is a great opportunity for an outdoor workout climbing back up the stairs.
Caves at 1000 Steps Beach
There were a number of skim boarders, and that seems to be a good beach for that. The waves are shore break, so surfing can be treacherous.
Parking is on the street, and make sure you cross Coast Highway at the signal.
None the less, 1000 Steps Beach in Laguna is absolutely breath taking, and just taking the time to go and enjoy this most beautiful area in Laguna is worth the visit.
Take your beverages and lunch, but make sure you save some water for the hike back up the stairs – even though there are not 1000 steps, it is a work out to climb back up those stairs.
If I can answer any questions about 1000 Steps Beach or about real estate in Laguna Beach or Newport Beach, please contact me.
Hope to see you there at 1000 Steps Beach.
