If
Newport Beach began on the Balboa Peninsula, the Peninsula
began with a Point. The Balboa Pavilion dates back to
1906, when it was built as a Victorian bathhouse and
a terminal for the Pacific Electric “Red Car.” The area—including
the infamous “Wedge” surfing spot—has long been the
ultimate destination for beach fun. The 800 homes between
Main Street and the tip of the Peninsula include traditional,
contemporary, Mediterranean and Cape Cod styles; 270
of them line the waterfront.
