4 Unexpected Photo Ops in Laguna Beach

4 Unexpected Photo Ops in Laguna Beach

You can take endless photos capturing epic beach views and sunny skies, but there are a couple of spots in town that shouldn’t be missed!

1. Colette Miller Wings

477 Forest Avenue

This one may be a bit expected, but who can resist taking a picture with wings painted by Colette Miller located on the back wall of Slice Pizza? These wings are one of many sets of wings that Miller has painted around the world as part of The Global Angel Wings Project. They were painted to remind humanity the we are the angels of this earth, and we are so grateful to have our own set of wings here in Laguna Beach.

2. Phone booth on Forest Avenue

On the corner of Forest Avenue & Beach Street

This phone booth is most certainly eye-catching, not just because of its bright red color, but also because of the ever-changing art installations housed inside of it. Installed in May 2019, “Super-Hero Changing Station” was created by local artist Robert Holton of Drizzle Art where Wonder Woman, Superman and Batman costumes drape from clothing hangers inside the booth, above a replica of Captain America’s shield and Thor’s hammer.

3. Old World Tibetan Door

298 Broadway Street

The door pictured above has been shipped all the way from Tibet and landed right here in Laguna Beach! Old world looking doors are really making a rise in the hipster-pic world. There is something extremely charming and unique about them that really gives your picture that perfect pop. London, Paris and Dublin are just a few cities to name that have Instagrammable old world doors, and now we can add Laguna Beach to the list!

4. Gold Wall

299 Ocean Avenue

This gold wall, located on the side of Bank of America serves as a glamorous backdrop to get that golden photo. Once you’ve snapped that perfect picture, stop by Zinc Café, which is just steps away, to enjoy a delicious latte on their quaint outdoor patio.
