Neighborhood Overview
Bluebird Canyon is the soul of Laguna Beach's canyon neighborhoods — a winding, layered community of approximately 400–500 homes developed over nearly a century, from the original 1920s beach cottages to sprawling contemporary estates exceeding 10,000 square feet. The canyon has long been home to Laguna Beach's artistic and creative community, and its distinctly independent, eclectic character is a direct reflection of the people who have chosen it over more conventional addresses. Homes date back to the early 1920s, when the first beach house was built here.
A significant 2005 landslide damaged 19 homes and reshaped part of the upper canyon; a comprehensive geological stabilization system has since been designed and installed. The widest price range of any Laguna Beach neighborhood — from $900,000 for a fixer-upper cottage to $6 million for a canyon view estate — makes Bluebird Canyon one of the most democratic communities in the city, mixing artists, longtime locals, and newer arrivals in a genuinely diverse residential fabric.
