The Balboa Island Museum was founded in 2000 to preserve the history of the unique communities of Balboa Island and Newport Beach. It is located on Balboa Island's "main street", Marine Avenue in a vintage cottage that was built in 1947. Noted as one of the best small museums, it showcases artifacts and photographs depicting early life.
