Newport Beach

Yes im an OC fan. Wanted to get up there for the day from San Diego to see what its like but cant seem to find any info on transport to there maybe its not possible anyone know?

Newport Beach

The closest train station is in Irvine. There%26#39;s also one in San Juan Capistrano. But without a car it%26#39;s difficult. I lived there for over 20 years and took the train to San Diego a few times. Someone had to take me to the train station. About 15 min drive. A friend visits me and takes the train but someone has to take her and pick her up at the train station. I%26#39;m sure there is bus service especially to Fashion Island/Newport Center. But Newport is spread out. You can walk around Fashion Island which is a shopping mall with restaurants. To get to the beach you%26#39;d have to take a bus and then you could walk around down there.

Newport Beach

As suggested, you can take the train(Amtrak or Coaster/Metrolink) from San Diego to San Clemente. Exit the train at San Clemente North Station, then cross the street and the Number 1 bus will take you up the Coast Highway through Laguna Beach to Newport Beach. The MTV series is filmed in Laguna Beach mainly, but the other beach communities from San Clemente to Huntington Beach are used for the shoots. The TV show The OC is filmed in Hollywood and the home used is in Ventura County. Many of the shoots of the acutal Orange County are film footage which have been previously filmed.

Enjoy!!

I forgot about the stop in San Clemente

Sounds like you%26#39;ve already got directions, but if you%26#39;re looking for all the OC sites and places the tv show is based on, you should stop by the Newport Beach Visitors Bureau (110 Newport Center Dr., Ste. 120 - across from Fashion Island) and pick up an ';OC Map';. It has all the different locations highlighted and tells you what episode they are from! It%26#39;s awesome!

I think you can also download the map online from their website at http://www.visitnewportbeach.com

Good luck! Have fun!
