Newport Beach, CA Factoid
It may surprise you to learn that Newport Beach was once a dukedom – in a manner of speaking. Legendary actor John Wayne, whose nickname was "The Duke," relocated from Beverly Hills to Newport Beach's Bayside Drive in 1966 and lived there until his death in 1979. Legend has it that the Oscar-winning actor "discovered" Newport Beach's beauty during his college days at Southern Cal.
