If we entered the last official winter month, wouldn’t it be nice to get a lead in the spring?
Lush greenery, beautiful sunshine and cloudless blue skies. That is what you will find along pristine coastlines and village -like streets in one of the most beautiful destinations of California.

Dressed between San Diego and Los Angeles, a Ritzy Paradise is perfect for a spring outing, especially with so many handy airports nearby.
Far removed from the cheap reality show of the name the same, Laguna Beach Is a desirable beach paradise to lean back, relax and close the winter in style.
The best of all is that February is one of the best times to visit before the hordes of spring breakers and final summer holidays come here.

Of course, you might send a postcard home to GAM GAM when you visit world-famous Disney country, but here at another destination of Orange County, you have the feeling that you are actually in a postcard.
Laguna Beach is indescribably beautiful. Although it is a household name, at least for millennials, Laguna Beach feels like a secret hiding place after taking the winding twists of Laguna Canyon RD., Eventually reached this social paradise.
It is really typical South California. For better or worse, you will be matte-tip bath masters, shirtless surfers, apparently out of hand roller blades, lively beach volleyball games and bikini-clad beach visitors see the dream customers of agencies model.

Countless beaches of Orange County, but in particular Laguna Beach, are to die for every moment you can visit without hordes of tourists who cramp your space.
Whether it will lounge, take a picturesque walk or fit like a local ‘Gunly Waves, Bruh’, the lively blue water and soft golden sand are exactly what the doctor has ordered to treat yourself on a last minute ‘Winter’ holiday .
Moreover, a large part of the picturesque cliff background is covered with benches to enjoy the view, but just know it Thousand Steps Beach Is now prohibited after an unfortunate mud flow.
If you ask me, it is impossible for Crescent Bay Beach To grow old someday. That’s my go-t.
Throw modesty along the road: Pamper yourself in paradise!

Laguna Beach is an idyllic escape, but also a place not to stop. As San Diegan I went to Laguna Beach a handful of turning and my bank account is always lighter than when I arrived.
But … notice that I said ‘handful times’, which means it is such a great place that I have not learned my lesson!
This is my secret game plan to maximize the savings, which are all feasible in February without the crowds:
- Meters have a 3 -hour limit, so park a lot (and use the Free trolley To make ends meet)
- Attach snacks to Whole Foods (within walking distance of the beach)
- If it’s time to complete the beach time, look for a great Happy Hour place such as Mozambique
- Window-Shop ‘until you fall
- Cap on the day Gelato paradiso – Always a must!
