Irvine residents and visitors going to Laguna Beach this summer can take advantage of a free shuttle bus beginning July 1 and continuing through Sept. 3. The Summer Breeze shuttles will run on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to midnight.
For a second summer, the Orange County Transportation Authority, in partnership with the City of Laguna Beach, will offer the buses from the Cavalia lot on Laguna Canyon Road and Limestone to Laguna Beach.
Convenient stops will be at the Sawdust Art Festival, Laguna Art-A-Fair, Festival of the Arts, Pageant of the Masters, Laguna Playhouse and the Laguna Beach Bus Station. At the Bus Station, visitors can connect with the free Laguna Beach Trolley for shopping and food destinations. Also, the Bus Station is only one block from the beach.
