Don't forget to indulge your sweet tooth with the city's beloved Balboa Bar, a chocolatedipped and sprinkle-covered ice cream bar, found a ferry ride away at the Balboa Island institution Dad's Donuts. RELA X Whether you're seeking five-star resorts or a charming hideaway, Newport Beach has it all. The Hyatt Regency Newport Beach throws a Summer Concert Series with big-name artists performing in the Back Bay Amphitheater, making the recently renovated, multimillion dollar, 407room property a must-stay. Spread across 504 hilly acres, The Resort at Pelican Hill offers Tuscan-style bliss through its 332 lavish bungalows, a Tom Fazio-designed golf course and cabana-flanked Coliseum Pool, one of the largest circular pools in the world. SEE Spanning 3.5 miles of beach and 2,791 acres of wooded canyons, bluffs, and trails, Crystal Cove State Park is the ideal place to feel away from it all. Mountain bikers, joggers, hikers and equestrians alike will have reason to rejoice. Tour the park's Historic District, dotted with 46 rustic cottages dating back to the '30s and '40s. Corona del Mar State Beach, or "CdM" 110 SPIRIT MAY 2014 to locals, is a pretty half-mile patch of cliffside beach, where swimmers and surfers flock. Go all in and get schooled on the water with Newport Beach Surfing Lessons. DO Residents are fierce about yachting, especially the annual Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race, a 125-nautical mile sprint of more than 200 crews down to the Baja California peninsula, held each April. Ogle the million-dollar nautical eye candy along the Pacific Coast Highway stretch referred to as Mariner's Mile. Live like a local, and charter your own canopy-topped Duffy boat, dubbed "golf carts on water." Zip along the harbor, or take a guided kayak tour that stops at Pirate's Cove, where Gilligan's Island was filmed.
