The Fashion Island, located at the Newport Center in Newport Beach is the ideal place to go if you like adventure and shopping.  Proving to be one of the premiere establishments in Newport Beach, Fashion Island is one place you simply must go if you crave a fun and exciting time during your trip here or your stay here.

Centrally located between Los Angeles and San Diego, stopping here won’t put you out of your way.  Offering shopping, beaches, theme parks, museums, parks and other events, this is an absolute treasure.  On Fashion Island itself, there are more than 1,300 hotel rooms within the Newport Center.

On Fashion Island kids love the carousel.  The carousel is a custom made Venetian-themed ride with 32 antique horses and other animals, perfect for riders of nearly any age.  With animals such as the rabbit, tiger, bear and fish, the carousel is a must see for anyone who enjoys theme parks and amusement rides.

For younger children, Fashion Island offers the whimsical Kiddie Train.  For younger children of the area, the
train has become a tradition.   If you are visiting here, you can find the train between Bloomingdale’s and Marcus.

On the island, two of the most signature elements are the splashing fountains and the well known sparkling koi pond.  Located adjacent to Macy’s, you’ll find the Pop Jet, and near Island Terrace you’ll find the also well
known Iris Fountain.  Both were created in 1989 and custom made for Fashion Island.  The koi pond was also custom made in 1968 and holds 15,000 gallons.
