About Balboa Island - Main Island

Balboa Island is a man-made island in Lower Newport Bay, dredged from a sandbar in the first decade of the 1900s and annexed to Newport Beach in 1916. The Main Island links to Little Balboa Island by a bridge, to the mainland by the Marine Avenue bridge, and to the Balboa Peninsula by the Balboa Island Ferry. Marine Avenue is its main street of shops and restaurants. Its lots are narrow, and the city's R-BI zone, written for Balboa Island alone, allows up to two units on a lot, so the streets mix single-family homes with duplexes.

Every beach on Balboa Island is public, the city's Coastal Land Use Plan says: 33 street ends give public access to the bay front, and the Bay Front Boardwalk circles the island. Private docks reach over tidelands the city holds in trust from the state, under a City pier permit. The perimeter seawalls date from the late 1920s and 1930s, and the city's 2026-27 capital program funds permitting and design for their replacement.
