Dana Point is a vacation destination in Orange County in
California between
San Clemente and
Laguna Beach. Famous for its harbor, Dana Point is a great city to visit if you love whale watching, sports fishing, and ocean views! During your
Dana Point beach house vacation, you and your family can explore the famous Ocean Institute, learn about California's history at Mission San Juan Capistrano, or visit one of Orange County's famous amusement parks.
Dana Point has been called "The Whale Watching Capital of the West" because whale migration patterns take them close to the shore. Charter a boat from the Dana Point Harbor and take a whale watching tour. Or hop on a ferry to Catalina Island and keep your eyes open on-route! From your
beach house, you can visit attractions like Disneyland (a 45-minute drive away), or LEGOLAND (a 30-minute drive away). Or you can stay close to home and enjoy world-class dining and shopping! Golf enthusiasts can visit the San Juan Hills Golf Links in San Juan Capistrano, which was voted the "Best of Southern California Golf" in 2010 by Southland Golf Magazine.
Visit Dana Point in March so you and your family can enjoy the whale festival in celebration of these majestic animals! Enjoy a leisurely drive along PCH as the sun sets and return to your
beach house in time for dinner. Dana Point's a beautiful destination for your beach vacation no matter what time of year you visit.
