Harbor Island is a rare, guard-gated enclave on the calm waters of Newport Harbor, offering an intimate collection of custom waterfront estates with private docks and wide‑channel views. Residents enjoy a true on-the-water lifestyle—morning paddles, effortless day cruising, and golden-hour sunsets—while staying minutes from the dining, culture, and coastal energy of Newport Beach. Strolls and boat rides connect you to iconic neighbors like Balboa Island, Lido Isle, and the coves of Corona del Mar. For those who love the social side of sailing, regattas and junior programs at the storied Newport Harbor Yacht Club keep the harbor’s traditions alive and accessible.
Families are served by Newport-Mesa Unified School District, with well-regarded options such as Mariners Elementary, known for strong academics and community involvement, and Newport Harbor High School, home to robust arts and athletics. Nature-minded residents find a serene counterpoint at the Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve, a regional treasure for birding, biking, and bayside trails. Daily life here balances privacy and ease—quiet, limited-traffic streets; 24/7 gatehouse security; and quick access to beaches, boutiques, and coastal dining.
