  • Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) July 19, 2011 - While surfers attempt to catch that perfect wave and beach-goers fight to find a patch of unoccupied sand, some Orange County families are discovering an ideal destination for enjoying a hot summer's day. Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort, which has played host to locals since 1958, offers the region's finest "mother's beach," so named because the waters are waveless and the beach is protected by a team of lifeguards.

    The white-sand beach stretches for more than a mile and the Dunes offers a number of amenities including two 20-foot fiberglass whales (one on the shore, the other in the water), a colorful pirate-themed playground and surrey bike, kayak, canoe and paddleboat rentals rentals. A number of beachfront pavilions and cabanas are available for rent and are ideal for family get-togethers. Other conveniences include the Back Bay Bistro and an onsite convenience store. Perhaps most exciting for the younger set is Moe B. Watersports, an aquatic amusement park featuring massive inflatable attractions including a rock climbing wall, giant teeter-totters, lily pads and a water trampoline.

    "While families used to flock here when we first opened, it has only been in recent years that locals have, once again, discovered the beauty, convenience and safety of Newport Dunes," said the resort's Executive Vice President and General Manager Andrew Theodorou "Because of the waveless beach, parents don't have to worry that their children are going to be victims of riptides, crashing waves and other perils associated with a heavy surf and our many amenities are sure to keep the younger folks entertained."

    Newport Dunes Resort is located at 1131 Back Bay Drive (near the intersection of Jamboree and Pacific Coast Highway) in Newport Beach. For more information, call (800) 765-7661 or visit www.newportdunes.com.
