Visit Laguna Beach
Laguna Beach invites you to feel the warm sun and sand, to dip your toes in the cool blue surf and to surround yourself on emerald green canyons. Laguna Beach is nine miles of pristine coastline, located halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. Enjoy ocean wildlife with dolphins, sea lions and more just offshore. It’s no ordinary place…and there’s nowhere else on earth quite like it!
Soak in the sun, hike among 20,000 acres of wilderness, kayak among wild dolphins, take a walk on the wild side in our celebrated tide pools, enjoy an interactive art lesson, join a drum circle, participate in a session of laughter yoga, enjoy a leisurely stroll along the cliffs in Heisler Park, or just sit and gaze at endless blue skies that meet the horizon along the sparkling blue Pacific.
Laguna Beach is home to over 100 galleries and one-of-a-kind shops. This artists’ village offers the complete spectrum in a casual walking environment. If you’re in the mood to shop for home furnishings, jewelry, surf wear, gifts or just window shop, there are many options including ready-to-wear art and unique designer accessories.

App didn't work well for me. None of the trolley options were available. Kept freezing. I couldn't get any info I needed while touring through the city.
Totally useless to complicated does give your position only trolley. What good is that if you dont know where you are.dont waste your time
Very weak app. None of the trolley buttons work...but there's loads of free advertising!
Trolley Tracker does not work. Web site says use the app. The app says use the web.
Buggy, couldn't scroll, really slow load, typos.
Can't get any info out of this. Every page is blank.
The trolly map and schedule are great.
Doesnt work. Nothing loads.
Out of date, not current
very useful initially, then updated my phone (Samsung galaxy S8) and now won't provide restaurant list, or trolley schedules.
Love the app overall but trolley tracker is awesome
Trolley tracker in Android version does NOT work, makes this app useless
Trolley tracker doesn't work
Absolutely useless.
Piece of crap app
I've installed a updates, uninstalled and reinstalled. Still crashes every time I open it.
So apparently this app won't even function unless you allow it access to making phone calls (it force closes upon startup), but beyond that it works well enough. It needs clear approximate arrival times on the trolley tracker or at least information on the direction that the trolley is traveling, though. There are times when you click on a trolley icon, but i have no idea what they're supposed to mean since half of the times are in the past, but it doesn't look like the screenshot examples.
This version has a bus tracker but you can not tell when the next bus is coming. What's the point of knowing where the bus is if you don't know when it's supposed to be there?
With the new update, the bus tracker doesn't work and I really need it to see when the bus is coming
Live tracker doesn't work. Love waiting 30 minutes for the trolley.
Ummm nice layout but where's the bus tracker?
Really helpful especially the trolley tracker.
Visit paradise with this app as your guide. Everything you need is here! Great app!!
Helpful & easy to use!
It only took a YEAR to support newer phones... But it still looks like a Geocities webpage from 1998.
Seeing places on the map great new feature!
Great for busses. Could see it cleaned up a bit though.
I really enjoy this app & use it a lot. Sometimes it's restaurants, sometimes it's being able to find tide charts, beaches, parking lots, and ATMs all in one place!
Very basic overview. The live trolley route isnt accurate and doesnt distinguish between N and S bound routes; that would really be the main reason for using the app. Restaurant and activities sections seem to be generic and sponsored.
