Balboa Island is a highly desirable residential enclave within Newport Beach, known for its small-town coastal charm, walkability, and strong long-term property values. Comprised of two connected islets surrounded by calm harbor waters, the island offers a close-knit community centered around
Marine Avenue’s shops and cafés, scenic waterfront boardwalks, and year-round local events. Homes are primarily single-family residences ranging from charming cottages to modern custom builds, many with harbor views, rooftop decks, or private docks ideal for boating and paddle boarding. Centrally located with easy access to beaches, shopping, dining, and John Wayne Airport—and connected to the Balboa Peninsula via the iconic ferry—Balboa Island appeals to buyers seeking a rare blend of lifestyle, convenience, and enduring coastal value.
