🌴 Why Orange County Is the Best Place to Spend the Holidays
☀️ Warm Days, Cool Nights
From Newport Beach to San Juan Capistrano, December brings crisp mornings and sunlit afternoons: perfect for patio brunches, coastal bike rides, and golden-hour walks with friends.
🏄 Surf & ⛷️ Ski in the Same Day
It's true! Locals can hit the waves at Huntington Beach in the morning and be on the slopes at Big Bear or Mountain High by the afternoon.
🎄 Coastal Holiday Events Everywhere
OC doesn’t slow down in December: it lights up. Literally.
🎉 Fun December Events in & Around Orange County
Here are just a few of the don’t-miss activities this month:
✨ Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade
Dec 18–22, 2026
Yachts, sailboats, and kayaks decked out in holiday lights cruise the harbor. One of the most iconic events in SoCal, and a favorite among our clients.
⛸️ Irvine Spectrum Outdoor Ice Rink
Skate under the stars surrounded by twinkle lights, shops, and restaurants. A perfect family night out.
🦌 Winter Fest OC (Costa Mesa)
Held at the OC Fairgrounds, this immersive experience features snow play, ice tubing, Santa’s Village, and holiday light displays. Great for kids and nostalgic adults.
🎁 Rodeo 39 Night Market (Stanton)
Live music, hot chocolate, pop-up vendors, and food trucks make this an ideal December weekend stop.
🎅 Local Tree Lightings & Markets
From Dana Point’s La Plaza Park tree lighting to Laguna Beach’s Sawdust Festival Winter Fantasy — there’s always something festive to do close to home.
🏡 Real Estate Stays Active in December
