Dana Point Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

Overview

If you're heading to Dana Point in Southern California's Orange County, be prepared to spend the majority of time along the city's beautiful waterfront. The Dana Point Harbor is the centerpiece of all activity and is a popular launching point for fishing trips as well as whale-watching tours. While you're there, visit the full-scale model replica of the vessel that brought the city's namesake, author Richard Henry Dana, Jr., here from the East Coast. Surfers as and sunbathers will find that Dana Point's beaches provide ample opportunities to enjoy their preferred seaside sport. When you're tired of the coast, head inland and visit San Juan Capistrano, where the swallows return every March 19.
