Santee Lakes is pretty quiet, and close to a Costco. I used to live about 5 miles from there. Highway 52 west to LaJolla is a fairly quick drive to the expensive beaches.
Silver Strand is on the beach, dry camping, and just south of Coranado Island.
Long Beach has one RV park near the Queen Mary, downtown, not walking distance, but close enough that you can see City Hall and the Queen Mary. Other RV places near Long Beach, you need security bars on your RV. . .
Orange County has many good RV parks.
Huntington Beach has one RV park on the beach, if you can get reservations. I think it is Bolsa Chica State Beach. It is a parking lot, that was transformed into a RV parking area. Right next to Pacific Coast Highway, the beach side is noisy ocean waves, while the highway side can be really noisy on weekday rush hour, when hundreds of cars go by each hour.
Have fun camping!
