Victoria Beach
Home to the famous La Tour ‘Pirate Tower’ — a walkable beach neighborhood of cottages and oceanfront estates.
Living in Victoria Beach
Victoria Beach is one of Laguna Beach’s most iconic beachfront pockets, best known for the 1926 La Tour — the storybook ‘Pirate Tower’ that stands on the sand. This walkable South Laguna neighborhood wraps around a picturesque sandy beach with tide pools and gentle surf, drawing beach lovers and photographers year-round.
Unlike the gated enclaves nearby, Victoria Beach is an open, walkable neighborhood ranging from charming beach cottages around $2.5M to oceanfront estates above $12M. It’s a rare chance to own steps from one of Laguna’s most beautiful and photographed beaches.
