Lush, upscale Orange County was once home to countless citrus orchards. While the oranges are gone for the most part, the incredible temperate climate remains, making this area one of the most pleasant for year-round visits. Small beach towns including Costa Mesa, Laguna Beach, San Clemente and Newport Beach all have something different to offer. You'll find local art galleries, great surfing spots, beachfront amusements, incredible seafood and, of course, fabulous golf, all within miles of each other on the breathakingly scenic Pacific Coast Highway. Plus, with well over 300 days of sun each year, every day is a good day to hit the green. |
