Things to do in Newport Beach, California (CA): The Best Fun Activities & Games

February 26, 2022 Nobuko Falco

Part unspoiled nature, part manmade wonder and part luxury paradise, Newport Beach enchants every type of traveler to its glowing shores. Trendsetters flock to the shopping havens of open air Fashion Island, the seaside shops of Corona Del Mar and the new developments on Newport Coast. The estuary on Back Bay is a birder's paradise, while the protected beach at Crystal Cove is favored by hikers. Surfers catch the best breaks on The Wedge while families enjoy the Fun Zone on Balboa Peninsula.

Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt: Newport Beach

An incredibly fun adventure where you'll find out if your detective skills are good enough to solve a murder... Our clues will systematically lead you to explore Newport Beach. Using your wits & some creativity, each location will reveal another piece of your investigation until you've discovered Who Done It? The team that solves the murder needing the least help from headquarters wins.

Our family had a great time at this Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. As others have said, it is definitely escape-room-ish, with puzzles to solve at different locations. Except you're outdoors, seeing the sights, and getting a little exercise along the way. Very clever puzzles, and we felt all of them were "fair". Challenging, but not ridiculously hard. It's also nice that there's plenty of time to chat with your group as you're walking to different locations. Not like an Escape Room, where you're pretty much go-go-go for 60mins. Also, because it's outdoors, it felt very covid-safe for those concerned about that. As the owner/host, Alex is very personable and makes the whole thing fun and entertaining. We'll definitely be doing one of his other locations.

I have never had a problem with people using phones in this theatre. The service is great. I ordered HOT popcorn and the person making it said she would bring it to me to my seat when it was ready. The recliner seats are GREAT! If I need time away from life I go and bring a blanket and relax. They are not strict about bringing blankets etc. I can bring my water in with me. I am always greeted nicely. The person posting about the cell phone usage seems to be an ungrateful OC local. Lets all grow up and be grateful we live here and can even enjoy the movies!
