But let me tell you about one of the coolest places to visit in Orange County, Balboa Island! Part of Newport Beach, Balboa Island is man-made. You have to take a ferry to get there, and you can take your car on some ferries. Other than the great shops and restaurants, and super-friendly people, their biggest "big deal" is the Christmas Parade they've put on since 1908.

• It looks like the closest you'll get to a bed breakfast is the Bay Shores Inn.

Visiting the San Diego area, and looking for a Bed Breakfast Southern California?

• Coronado is a unique area not to be missed... it's a classy island and community unto itself off the coast of San Diego, and you can get there via the marvelous and curvy Coronado bridge, or the old-school route via the ferry. You may also be interested in the historic Hotel Del.
• Del Mar is perhaps the most affluent coastal community in San Diego, and a beautiful, relaxing place to visit. Try Epazote's blackened fish taco if you decide to bed breakfast southern California here!
• Encinitas, ah, the ocean, the sun, the hippies... and some really nice restaurants! If you decide to bed breakfast southern California in Encinitas, and you like italian, try Vigilucci's. You won't be disappointed.
• Julian is such an important spot to San Diego, that during the 2003 southern California wildfires, the fire(wo)men made a stand there, and managed to save it! This town really takes the cake as a romantic getaway- it's surrounded by hills, hiking, near Lake Cuyamaca, it's peaceful, quaint, a historic village, and they're famous for their apple pie! A great choice for a bed breakfast southern California spot.
• La Jolla, like Del Mar, is an upscale, affluent oceanside community. La Jolla has a lot better shopping, and more restaurants, though. If you don't mind a few crowds at times, it's nice place for your bed breakfast visit. (see picture below)
