 Dana Point is situated on the beautiful Southern
California coast, halfway between San Diego and Los Angeles. It prides itself
with nearly seven miles of coastal bluffs and rolling hills along the Pacific
Ocean with its charming beaches and wild surfs. Most noteworthy of these bluffs
is a unique promontory known as the “Headlands”, which overlooks Dana Point
Harbor, one of the most significant man-made alterations of the Orange County
coastline. Dana Point encompasses 6.5 square miles and is home to 35,110 people
and numerous businesses, all working together as one community. You can see this
collaboration in action during some of the City's annual festivals and events
such as the Turkey Trot in November, Festival of Whales in March, and its 4th of
July fireworks show. The City is home to the Dana Point Harbor, the newly opened
Ocean Institute presenting a wide array of marine life, to several beautiful
lodging facilities and restaurants to accommodate your special needs. Dana Point is named after Richard Henry Dana, Jr., a Harvard-trained lawyer,
seaman, and author of the classic sea journal, Two Years Before the Mast. His
writings document the voyage from Boston around Cape Horn to California on the
merchant ship, Pilgrim, and describe the area once known as Capistrano Bay, as
“the most romantic spot on the California Coast”. Today, Capistrano Bay is known
as Dana Point. Another fascinating area commonly known to many as Monarch Bay,
is also known as Dana Point.
