Description
Upper Newport Bay. Newport Beach, California. Looking across estuary at residential area.
Upper Newport Bay. The Back Bay as it is endearingly known to those who live nearby, lies hidden in the heart of Newport Beach. Many come here to ride horses and bikes, hike, canoe, kayak, bird-watch or simply savor the delightful sunrises and sunsets over its tranquil waters.
Upper Newport Bay is the largest of only a few remaining natural estuaries in Southern California. An estuary is a coastal wetland where salt water from the ocean mixes with nutrient-rich fresh water from inland sources, to provide a fertile feeding area for birds, fish and other animals.
The Upper Bay is a regional recreational and educational resource. It also plays a huge part in protecting the infra-structure of the Lower Bay and the beaches of Newport Beach. Newport Beach has one of the largest small boat harbors in the country, with over 9,000 craft docked. And its beaches are a regular weekend destination for families from inland Orange County as well as Riverside and San Bernardino Counties.
