Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve

Fun easy hike with lots of wildlife . Directions: https://hikingguy.com/hiking-trails/hiking-orange-county/upper-newport-bay-nature-preserve/

Walkers, hikers, bikers, horseback riders, and runners are all welcome! Looking into a little bird watching or some wildlife education on some coastal wetland plants? Then this is the place to visit!

Amazing view , very nice area to explore.

Everything is great, just be aware I got my credit cards stolen somehow they were able to open my car and get them, put your belongings safe

Enjoying the nice breeze and watching the kayakers and rowers while looking out over the bay .

Nice place for a short walk - gets crowded on the weekends and no one wears a mask because it’s Orange County .
