Located along the spectacular southern Orange County coastline, halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego, is a tropical paradise known as Laguna Beach. Southern California's premier seaside artist haven, Laguna Beach is a scenic beach resort lined with mansions and quaint cottages. The community lies amidst subtropical gardens that line bluffs overlooking sandy coves along a seven-mile pristine coastline. Developed as a resort city more than a century ago, artists began arriving soon after and enjoy almost year-round, picture-perfect weather.
Laguna Beach residents are provided with a superior education system for their children, safe, quiet neighborhoods; breathtaking landscapes, many superb restaurants, art galleries, specialty boutiques, hotels and much more. Inland, luxuriant foliage and sea view homes cover lower canyons and ridges of hills that rise more than 1,000 feet above the ocean.
