Costa Mesa is nestled between Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, each boasting sandy shorelines along the Pacific Coast. Though Costa Mesa is not directly on the water, the city still offers beautiful views and nearby beaches. Downtown Costa Mesa is the city’s lively commercial district in Orange County, situated about 43 miles southeast of Downtown Los Angeles.
Charming local restaurants, shops, and community parks reside in and around town. Lions Park sits in the center of the neighborhood nearing State Route 55, offering an aquatic center, playground, and baseball field for community use.
Enjoy pristine oceanfront views from nearby West Newport Park along CA-1, or travel a little farther south to reach Newport Beach Pier.
