In Buena Park, Knott's Berry Farm offers 160 acres of brand-new rides along with old-fashioned charm. Combining California history with modern entertainment, it's an amusement park unlike any other. Where else can you ﬁnd a woodcarver, blacksmith, and ghost town around the corner from a 55 miles-per-hour roller coaster? That OC style In Southern California, fashion is a main attraction. With hundreds of retail options, The OC may have you shopping for a second suitcase. Mall-hop between Costa Mesa, Fashion Island, Newport Beach, Irvine Spectrum, and the Market Place to score the latest styles. Or spend a day at South Coast Plaza - California's largest shopping destination. With over 250 retailers, it's an especially popular destination for shoppers seeking designer names like Dolce & Gabbana and Chanel. Home to OC-inspired surf brands like Hurley, Volcom, and Van's, The OC has a style all its own. There's also scores of boutiques selling local art, jewelry, and more. Arts and culture by the sea If you're missing your muse, just look west. It's impossible to stay uninspired in The OC. Artists have been settling in areas like Laguna Beach since the early 1900s, drawn by that indescribable California light. Today, organizations such as Pageant of the Masters, Orange County Museum of Art, and Sawdust Art Festival, Laguna Beach continue to celebrate the area's colorful history. Venues like Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa attract talent from around the globe. And what would a world-class arts scene be without big-name bands? Plan your visit to The OC around the A-list concerts at Honda Center, The Grove at Anaheim, House of Blues, and other outdoor venues that can be enjoyed all year long. No trip is complete without exploring The OC's diverse dining scene. From a laid-back meal with an ocean view to a night out at a trendy wine bar, The OC has plenty of topnotch options. Planning your trip Sure, it's swimming pools and movie stars, but The OC is also a taste of the real California - one that welcomes want-to-be surfers, hobby painters, theater nerds, shopaholics - and you, the adventurer looking for a little sunshine and a whole lot of fun.
