Corona Del Mar |
 Corona Del Mar |
Corona del Mar (Spanish for Crown of the Sea) is a part of the City of Newport Beach. Located 50 miles south of Los Angeles, 4 miles west of John Wayne Airport and 70 miles north of San Diego, it is nestled on and at the foot of the San Joaquin Hills fronting the Pacific Ocean. Corona del Mar ranges along a bluff at the south end of Newport Beach and includes some of the city’s most prestigious residential areas. When you stand on the hilltop bluff park and look out to the Newport Harbor and Pacific Ocean, you’ll be treated to some of California’s most romantic beach views. That’s why the parks in Corona del Mar are sought out for weddings and romantic proposals. But parking is limited and there is basically no way to prohibit the public from sharing the parks that lead down to Corona del Mar State Beach, so with that in mind, you’ll need a permit, but don’t get your hopes up for a big ceremony here. |

 Tustin |
People who know this area well sometimes refer to Tustin as “The City of the Trees.” Although a variety of trees are responsible for this nickname, this is a distinctive quality of the area which dates back centuries, actually to the time of the early Spanish explorers. The first Europeans in Orange County came with the Portola Expedition in 1769. This expedition, which had two padres (including Father Juan Crespi) and a small contingent of the army, set out north to establish the string of missions throughout California. (Father Serra, who was in charge of this project, was not along on this expedition, remaining in San Diego to establish the mission there.) |
