Balboa Village on the Peninsula

You name it, Balboa Village has it great beaches, restaurants, water sports, shopping, art galleries, sportfishing, whale watching and of course, the Fun Zone and more.

Grab an early morning breakfast at the Balboa Bakery & Donuts on your way to catch the Catalina Flyer or Davey’s Locker for some sportfishing. Savor fresh seafood, prime steaks and waterfront views at Harborside or Newport Landing. Eat a slice of yummy pizza from Pizza Pete’s, experience flavorful sushi at San Shi Go or kick back with a craft-brewed beer at the Balboa Saloon.

Feel like a kid again at The Fun Zone at Balboa Village. Enjoy a narrated harbor cruise, take a ride on the Ferris wheel, try the Ocean Motion attraction, play old-school Skee-Ball at the Balboa Arcade or discover exciting hands-on activities at the Discovery Cube’s Ocean Quest. Whatever you do, you must stop by the Balboa Bar for a famous frozen banana.

Powerboats, electric boats, sailboats, kayaks, stand up paddleboards, jet skis – check out the fleets at Boat Rentals of America- Balboa Boat Rentals and Balboa Water Sports. Is fun on land more your style? Stroll along the Bayfront Boardwalk, Balboa Pier and Ocean Boardwalk, make it a beach day or rent bikes for the whole family at Seaside Bike Rentals.

Explore all Balboa Village has to offer. You’re sure to make memories for a lifetime.
