Southern California is a family favorite offering year-round fun, and now one of the region’s top destinations has created a whole new reason families will love it. The recently launched Newport Beach Vacation Kids Club offers the perfect way to enjoy sunny SoCal with perks and savings designed specifically for families with kids.

 

With 10 miles of beautiful coastline to enjoy and 10 different neighborhoods to explore, there are endless ways to discover Newport Beach. Sunshine nearly every day and wonderful weather throughout the year make the city practically irresistible, while activities like whale watching, sailing and chilling poolside remain just some of the many reasons families visit year after year.

 

Visit Newport Beach created this great, junior-level V.I.P. program by carefully selecting some of the most family-friendly activities in town as partners. The club’s benefits run the gamut of activities, so there are sure to be several offerings to interest your family. Options include discounts on tickets with Davey’s Locker, one of the premier whale- and dolphin-watching cruises in the area, and a specially priced Luxurist Voyager package, which offers a day aboard one of Captain Newport’s luxurious yachts featuring a trampoline and waterslide.

 

Offers also include discounts on food and treats around town, like 10 percent off at B. Candy and Kids Eat Free days at local favorites like Guacamigos and Bear Flag Fish Co. Through the Vacation Kids Club, get deals on Sea-Doo rentals, electric boat rentals and bike rentals, or score BOGO passes to the Fun Zone or a wildlife package for the family at Sherman Gardens.

 

Newport Beach isn’t just a hotbed of great places to eat and play, but it is also home to incredible places to stay, and the kids club offers plenty of perks that let you enjoy them. And like the activities, these benefits have been chosen specifically for their kid-friendly offerings. Duke’s Adventure, for example, is a combination kids’ buffet breakfast and scavenger hunt hosted by the iconic Balboa Bay Resort, and Paintbox Adventures, the kids club at the Pendry Newport Beach, offers daily credits that include breakfast and access to all resort amenities. So, while the kids enjoy the luxury of this top-rated hotel, parents can enjoy some pampering of their own.

 

The club is free to join, and the current deals are available until Nov. 15. Navigate the benefits with the assistance of the program’s AI concierge, which goes above and beyond with creativity. Instead of the usual AI support offered through a live chat online, you can actually chat with the AI concierge over the phone as well.

Move to the Music and Rhythm of Destinations Around the World

The true rhythm of a country is felt away from the main tourist traps. Galleries, museums and historic sites provide an overview, but you need to go elsewhere to experience the living, beating heart of a place. For instance, immerse yourself in the humid turmoil of a Durban underground club, or get to grips with the formal group dances of the Scottish Highlands, or become part of the foot-stomping camaraderie of a Galway pub, or ride the waves of neon-lit energy in a Seoul basement nightclub.
