Shopping & Arts
Shopping
Laguna Beach shopping boutiques put a unique spin on every experience. Shopping is always fun and funky thanks to the array of specialty boutiques, eclectic shops and fine art galleries. Homegrown, small-town businesses curate a unique blend of clothes, jewelry, and art you'll find nowhere else-including Hobie Surf Shop and Tuvalu, where The Ranch at Laguna Beach guests receive 10% off select in-store items when you present your room key.
Peppertree Lane
Just beyond the bustle of Pacific Coast Highway, discover Peppertree Lane—a charming Laguna Beach landmark tucked into a secluded courtyard in the heart of town. Built in 1934 around a living pepper tree, this intimate enclave invites you to slow down and explore a collection of beloved local shops and gathering places.
Savor handcrafted chocolates and truffles at La Rue du Chocolat, indulge in small-batch Italian gelato at Gelato Paradiso, and browse distinctive women's apparel and accessories at Smitten. When the afternoon gives way to evening, join friends at The Saloon, a longtime Laguna gathering place for cocktails and conversation.
Charming, unexpected, and quintessentially Laguna, Peppertree Lane is a lovely place to wander between the beach, shops, and galleries of downtown.
South Coast Plaza
Home to 250 luxury stores and 30 high-end restaurants spread across the West Coast's largest mall, South Coast Plaza is Orange County’s version of Rodeo Drive—an idyllic place to purchase designer clothes and jewelry.
Fashion Island

Irvine Spectrum Center

Arts
Renowned for its eclectic collection of local artisans, Laguna Beach’s art scene is something special. Galleries sprinkled throughout Laguna feature the passion and creativity of this thoughtful community. The Sawdust Art Festival, Festival of the Arts, Pageant of the Masters and Art-A-Fair draw international crowds and acclaim.
