Balboa Peninsula
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Balboa Peninsula, Newport Beach
Balboa Peninsula is one of Newport Beach, California's most iconic stretches, a narrow strip of sand between the Pacific and Newport Harbor lined with beach cottages and the historic Balboa Fun Zone. BarFinder lists 43 venues here, led by classic bars and a strong sports bar showing, with a real winery and brewery presence too. The Shamrock Bar & Grill and Malarky's Irish Pub are longtime peninsula fixtures, while 36th Street Brewhouse gives the area some modern craft-beer appeal - a genuine beach-town bar scene.
