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.
