Laguna Beach is Southern
California's premier seaside
artist haven. Though world
famous, Laguna Beach still
possesses a unique small-town
charm rarely found anywhere
else. Quaint cottages framed
by subtropical gardens line
bluffs above sandy coves along
a seven mile picture-postcard
coastline. Inland, luxuriant
foliage and seaview homes
cover canyons and ridges that
tower more than 1,000 feet
above the ocean. Artists began
arriving here over a century
ago (Norman St. Claire in
1903) soon followed by the
Hollywood elite (Bette Davis,
Mary Pickford, Mary Miles
Minter, Victor Mature, Judy
Garland, Rudolph Valentino,
Charlie Chaplin and Mickey
Rooney all maintained homes
in Laguna Beach). In 1920 they
founded the Laguna Playhouse
- the oldest continuously
operating theatre company on
the west coast. Today, visitors
from around the world come to
Laguna Beach to enjoy the
Pageant of the
Masters/Festival of Arts, the
Sawdust Festival, Art-A-Fair
and the Laguna Beach Film
Festival as well as its fine
shops, art galleries,
restaurants, and hotels, many
with breathtaking sunset views.
