Destination Guide to the Golden State California Day Trips

Laguna Beach, California

Laguna Beach is one of the most picture perfect beach towns in Southern California. The city has so far resisted high-rise hotels and condos and looks much the same as it did in the 1960s. Pacific Coast Highway winds down the center off town lined with art galleries, shops and restaurants. The most visited beach is Main beach right downtown. The beach has a wooden boardwak with lots of benches to sit and relax on. A short drive down PCH will give you access to some smaller beach coves and tide pools. Head up Laguna Canyon and you pass by the world famous Festival of Arts and the summer Sawdust Festival. Much of the canyon is open space with hiking and mountain bike trails open to the public. Laguna Beach is a great place to the spend a day or an entire vacation.
