This full-day private coastal tour from Redondo Beach is your invitation to discover the soul of Southern California’s shoreline—historic towns, iconic beaches, hidden coves, and breezy boardwalks—all expertly curated into one unforgettable adventure. With a dedicated local guide, private transportation, and a relaxed itinerary, you’ll experience the best of Orange County’s coast from a fresh, insider’s perspective.
Your journey begins in San Juan Capistrano, California’s oldest town and a treasure trove of Spanish-era history. During your 40-minute stop in the Los Rios Historic District, you’ll walk among adobe homes, browse artisan boutiques, and visit the impressive Mission Basilica, a cornerstone of California’s early heritage.
Next, the coastal highway leads you north past the harbor views and sailing culture of Dana Point, before arriving in Laguna Beach, where you’ll have a 1-hour break to enjoy lunch (not included), explore galleries, or relax by the ocean at parks like Crescent Bay or Main Beach.
From there, your guide navigates a scenic stretch through Heisler Park, Crystal Cove, and Corona del Mar, sharing stories and local insight along the way. Your next stop is Balboa Island, a quaint and colorful harbor village where you’ll enjoy 30 minutes to stroll Marine Avenue, sample a frozen banana, and snap a photo of the ferry crossing the bay.
The final stop is Huntington Beach, the beating heart of SoCal surf culture. You’ll have 40 minutes to explore Pacific City, walk the iconic pier, or shop along Main Street, soaking in the relaxed spirit of Surf City USA.
On your way back to Redondo Beach, enjoy a narrated drive through the Bolsa Chica Wetlands and past the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station, gaining a deeper understanding of the natural and military history that’s shaped the region. You’ll arrive back by early evening—having covered the full spectrum of Orange County’s coastal charm, from Spanish missions to surfboards, all in one beautifully guided day.
