Looking for the best spot to see fireworks this 4th of July?
Here's some helpful tips for the best views in Costa Mesa:
Mesa Verde Area:
Try the top of Estancia Park near the Adobe. There is a huge grassy area there, restrooms, and a drinking fountain, and the top of the park is flat and give an amazing vantage point to watch a free show that is put on by the Mesa Verde Country Club. It usually starts around 9:30 that night.
Eastside Costa Mesa:
The best bet is anywhere you can get a peak at the Newport Dunes show, information here:
Newport Dunes Spectacular: Event kicks off with activities including carnival games, crafts, DJs spinning music and hula hooping, limbo and horseshoe tournaments. BBQ and concessions will be available for purchase. 11 a.m.-10 p.m. $30 per car. Newport Dunes Resort, 1131 Back Bay Drive. 949-729-DUNE (3863) or www.newportdunes.com
Westside Costa Mesa:
Anywhere you can get a vantage point on the bluff, especially at Victoria Vista Park. You can see all the Huntington Beach fireworks from a great vantage point.
