Oceanfront Walk
About
Oceanfront Walk is a public ocean beach in California, about 3.7 miles from Costa Mesa. It offers accessible access, and there is no fee to visit. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on time along the sand rather than in the water. Mild weather lasts all year. Late summer and early fall are the warmest stretch, with typical highs around 72 to 74°F from July through October and almost no wet days, according to averages from a nearby weather station at Newport Beach Harbor. Winter brings typical highs in the mid-60s and about six wet days a month. Trail C and Trail A are both just over 2 miles away for a short hike. Climbers can head to Corona Del Mar and Pirate's Cove, about 3.6 miles away.
