🥘 Rusty Pelican - Newport Beach

Rusty Pelican has been flirting with Newport sunsets since 1972, pairing marina views with seafood that never hits a false note. Nab a window table, dunk warm garlic-brushed sourdough, then spoon up velvet-smooth crab bisque or twirl plump shrimp scampi over citrus-bright risotto.

A crisp Sauvignon Blanc from the Wine Spectator-praised cellar seals the deal. Waves shimmer, yachts glide by, and the city lights wait to toast your last bite. Learn more here.

🐬 Surprise dolphin surf at Balboa Pier

The Gist: A trio of dolphins cruised just yards from swimmers off Newport Beach a couple weeks ago, circling back through the breakers as beachgoers cheered and even caught waves beside them. Local resident Angelica Torres caught the playful visit on video, calling it an unforgettable moment.

Why It Matters: Summer sightings often peak in calm morning surf, so keep a respectful distance and your phone ready. Read more here.
