Orange County's John Wayne Airport, also known as SNA, (http://www.ocair.com) is only about 15 miles from Laguna Beach. From SNA, you can get to Laguna Beach by one of several ways: rent a car and drive most popular, take a taxi about $50, take a door-to-door shuttle about $30 or limo, or take the OCTA [see Orange County Transportation Authority below] bus #76 $2.50, runs hourly to the Newport Transportation Center and transfer there to the OCTA bus #1 that runs to Laguna Beach via the Pacific Coast Highway. All of these modes may be found at the SNA's Ground Transportation Center across the street from Terminal A and B, with the exception of the OCTA bus #76, which is boarded at the OCTA Bus Stop at the far end of Terminal B curbside.

Laguna Beach is located along the Pacific Coast Highway CA 1 at the "T" intersection of Laguna Canyon Road CA 133, which becomes Broadway in town. When arriving on summer nights during Pageant of the Masters performances expect a lot of traffic along CA 133 and plan extra time to get into town.

From John Wayne Airport, you can take either Interstate 405 to the north or CA-73 to the south and partway a toll road to get to CA-133 and south to Laguna Beach. Alternatively, you can drive south from John Wayne Airport to Newport Beach and pick up CA-1 to Laguna Beach.

By Rail

Amtrak and Metrolink stations are located in Irvine, Laguna Niguel, San Juan Capistrano, and San Clemente. From there it will be necessary to take public transportation or a taxi.
