Balboa Village--Home of the Fun Zone. This historical village is perfect for families and features the Fun zone with its old-time arcade games and Ferris wheel along the waterfront.
Old town Balboa, shops, eateries, ferry to Balboa Island and have the famous Balboa bar. You can drive your car onto the ferry to cross but parking is very limited. I suggest walking or bike riding to get over to the island. The island has beach-chic shops along Marine Avenue.

Continue all the way down the peninsula and you will end up at the famous "Wedge". The Wedge is know for its large wedge shaped, very powerful waves and awesome sunsets. With potential 30-foot waves, you may find more bodyboarders than surfers. This spot is the biggest swell in Southern California.
