Laguna Beach Background If you're looking for artistic inspiration, look no further than Laguna Beach. The longtime artists' haven is full of beautiful beaches and scenic vistas just waiting for you to draw, sketch or photograph them. Laguna Beach was first occupied by the Ute-Azteca Indians, who named the area Lagonas, their word for "lakes." Spaniards later called it Canada de las Lagunas, which means "Canyon of the Lakes." In 1904, the city was renamed Laguna Beach. Around that time, a bohemian group of artists and writers flocked to the community. Today, Laguna Beach remains a haven for artists. It also has a sizable homosexual community, and the city was one of the first to adopt ordinances making it illegal to discriminate against gays or people with AIDS.
