dana point
Picturesque Dana Point overlooks the Pacific in south Orange County and is home to some of the area’s most iconic annual events, including the Concours d’Elegance and the Festival of Whales. With seven miles of rolling bluffs and hills along the coast, Dana Point’s most famous landmark is the Headlands, a promontory that sits atop Dana Point Harbor. Family friendly with a deeply rooted community feel, the city of Dana Point includes world-class resorts on Emerald Bay and Monarch Bay, tree-lined neighborhoods and plenty of seaside recreation. With access to Catalina Island via the Catalina Express and the exclusive Strands neighborhood, the city combines coastal luxury and laid-back surfer charm.
