My favorite thing is the CRAFT FAIR AT THE PIER:
Every Friday afternoon and most summer weekends, you can find Art-A-Faire down at the Promenade at the Pier. The promenade also features several delightful shops. If you have transportation, go to San Pedro Port’s O Call Village. It is a charming turn of the century village of shops, featuring items and gifts from all over the world, restaurants and galleries.

If you’re 14 and female, you’ll probably like the Fashion Island Mall in Newport Beach.

You could visit the Queen Mary.

There’s a small but interesting zoo in Santa Ana.

You aren’t too far from Knott’s Berry Farm.

Take the ferry to Catalina island. Well worth the trip!

@Dog: There has been a recent outbreak of attacks on tourists by a bunch of thugs. I would not recommend it.

Walt’s Wharf for dinner
Shopping at Fashion Island or South Coast Plaza

The wait in line for Mrs. Knott’s fried chicken is worth it.

Phew. Good thing I don’t eat chickens. No lines for vegans. 

Inexpensive or free things to do in Southern California:
Rent bikes and ride up and down the boardwalk
Check out South Coast Plaza, the Mecca of shopping!!
Exposition Park
The Getty

I just realized that you left on Sunday. I just got back on Sunday, sorry I couldn’t get the info to you sooner!

@judi It would be horrible to go to So. Coast Plaza and NOT by anything.

Judi's avatar

@tinyfaery ; I usually buy a little something at Nordstrom so I can have a bag on my arm, even if I’m not spending big :-)
