This is where the fun starts.
Whether you're looking for a classic family week at the beach, 17 outstanding golf courses, world-famous sport fishing or a weekend getaway, OC delivers everything you desire ASAP.
Things To Do:
The water sports you want.
Watercraft everywhere.
In OC, you can rent almost any kind of watercraft imaginable. Race across the waves on a jet ski, or glide high above with a parasail. Kayaking and canoeing are also available, in the ocean or in the tranquil bay waters.
Surf’s up – ocean and bayside.
Our waves have welcomed surfers and boogie boarders for decades. Two beaches are reserved every day for surfers; their locations rotate daily. In addition, one section of beach along the Inlet is reserved for surfers. It’s open Monday through Friday during the summer, except on July 4th.
