  • A travel guide for visiting Corona Del Mar in Newport Beach. We'll explore the beaches, view points, neat historical sights, the shopping and eating district on Pacific Coast Highway, and a really amazing garden and nursery. Corona Del Mar is a seaside neighborhood perched on the bluffs in Newport Beach California but with a whole vibe of it’s own. Corona Del Mar has a population of 16,000. And most famously was the setting for the Fox Network TV show Arrested Development. Famous American Actor John Wayne also called CDM his home.

    Corona Del Mar looks like such a beautiful beach area. I love that so many tv shows and movies have filmed here. With all the shopping and dining options, this looks like a wonderful place to spend a day. Though from the sound of it, I couldn't spend much longer than that. Thanks for taking us along Chris!

    Nice and informative video, thanks. Hope I can visit the places you showcase one day.
    In the unlikely event that you ever travel to Germany again, I recommend you check out one of the garden centers here. Normally I try avoiding being "that guy", but if you like big garden centers, you might like to visit some of the ones in Germany.
    Germany has basically turned into a country sized retirement home and if there is one thing old Germans love, it is their gardens and fiddling around with flowers and stuff like that, so there is tons of demand for this kind of stuff, with means huge, fancy garden centers out the wazoo.
    I live in a tiny village with less than 3000 residents and even we got a pretty big and well stocked garden center and only like a 20 minute car ride from here, there is a huge one that almost has amusement park dimensions. The section that sells Christmas and other holiday decorations alone is as big as the average IKEA store and you could genuinely get lost in the "little and not so little frog sculptures" section alone, hehe.
    If I remember correctly, they have 2 restaurants, several concession stands in between the sprawling garden displays surrounding the store and a two story daycare center / play ground with a "Ewok village" style collection of tree houses, connected by rope bridges and life size wooden dinosaurs to climb around on and so on.

    • @YellowProductions

    I'm not an authority but it has been claimed that the Gilligan ship sequence where they set out to see is from the Newport channel next to CDM. (Some argue that is false.) At any rate, people very specifically and vehemently claim that Newport and CDM/Pirates Cove was NOT on Gilligan -- that it was shot on Hawaii(the pilot); one thing shot at Malibu; and all the rest at Republic Studios.*
    Less debated than that it has also been claimed that "You can climb over the rocks to Pirates Cove where the original version of Treasure Island was filmed in 1934" - though imdb lists several location and that's not one of them. I also vaguely recall the Newport Harbor tourist cruise (they had a "north one" and a "south one" - both very recommended) with the narrator also saying that about Pirates Cove and the Treasure Island movie. Note, there were multiple Treasure Island movies.
    I once lived a few blocks away from the beach and jetties, but in the olden pre-Internet 1990s you had to learn things piecemeal and by word of mouth. Plus I've flushed a few brain cells since then, so my memory is dull on this and wasn't authoritative to begin with!
    * See video

    for extensively researched information about the lagoon and sets at Republic Studios in Studio City in 1964.
    Fun and interesting 10 minute treatment.

      Um, set out to SEA, not see :)
      It's commonly said that Gilligan was connected to Newport and CDM, but everyone who has authoritative sounding specific knowledge says they had nothing to do with CDM.

    I am from here...
    1. All locals call it big corona....there is no other name
    2. Actually a great place for beginner surfers actually if you stick to right side near jetty....
    3. Poor people do live in the area too....it isn't all richie riches. Although mostly are....there are scattered landlords who still have souls.
    4. Telling people about little corona makes you and complete youtube asshat....locals hate you btw....
    5. Five Crowns is out dated and for old people. The decor is from 1980 and it's not great. Over priced.
    6. You didn't mention SideDoor which is the newer more relavent restaurant they turned half of 5Crowns into because 5 crowns customer base is slowly dying off because it's awful. You also didnt mention the underground roaring 20's party that happens ny invite only that is held weekends I the basement of 5 crowns....you really missed a lot here...
    7. You skipped the Gstream.....you failed hard. That's the go to spot for this entire area of So Cal.....a great place to people watch, see celebrities and watch all the so called classy ladies get drunk and screw people in the surrounding bushes....how can you forget that?
    I live here from 1984 until 2013....let me know if you have any questions. I actually know JW grandkids and no they aren't racist like John Wayne was you didn't mention Kobe being buried here.....in same cemetery as JW btw....and the drummer from Def Leppard. Amy ? Ask away.....I lived in this town before the 80's housing boom and new money
    came in and ruined CDM forever.... The best was in 2008housing crash the same asshats who thought they were so perfect and always so rude were delivering you pizzas on their high end BMW.....which you have to see to believe
