Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
During the Pleistocene period, a stream carved a canyon at Upper Bay of Newport. Sand brought by ocean currents helped create Lower Bay of Newport and Balboa Peninsula. The Tongva people lived in the area for thousands of years before Europeans arrived in the 1800s. At the time, surveyors warned against sailing through the upper and lower bay areas, but Captain Samuel S. Dunnells successfully steered a 105-ton steamer through the waters in 1870. They set up a port there and called it Newport.
McFadden Wharf was constructed in 1888 but was removed in 1928 because it was damaged by a storm. Newport Municipal Pier was built in its place in 1940. The pier is 1,032 feet long and is registered as a California Historical Landmark. Balboa Pier is another pier in Newport Beach that was built in 1906. With the many rocks and ledges, natural and artificial reefs, piers, and shipwrecks in the area, Newport Beach attracts a wide variety of fish, making it a top destination for fishing in California.
