Travel & stay
How to get to Newport Beach, and where to stay near the pavilion.
Flying in
John Wayne Airport (SNA)
The closest, about 20 minutes from the pavilion. Direct flights from many US cities; from France you’ll need a connection.
Los Angeles (LAX)
Direct flights from Paris. Allow about an hour’s drive to Newport Beach, longer in traffic.
Where to stay
Balboa Peninsula
The most convenient: stay near Balboa Village and you can walk to the wedding, with the beach five minutes away.
Balboa Island
A quiet little island of beach cottages. The ferry drops you near the pavilion; check the time of the last crossing.
Newport Beach and Costa Mesa
The widest choice of hotels, 15 to 20 minutes away by car.
