I would say the drive to Newport is around 20 to 25 min with traffic. We go there everytime we go to So Cal. We have only driven to the other two once.

You can take side streets from Disneyland to Huntington and Newport Beach. Here's how you do it.
Go south on West Street. Turn right on Garden Grove Blvd. Then make a left turn on Brookhurst St. You will be taking this street all the way down to Pacific Coast Highway (about 12 miles). One you get to PCH, turn right and the Huntington Pier will be about 2-3 miles on your left.
If you want to go to Newport Beach, make a left turn on PCH. Newport Beach will be a short 5 miles.
