DANA POINT

Named after celebrated seaman, author and Harvard-trained lawyer, Richard Henry Dana Jr., Dana Point is a coastal masterpiece. The city features nearly seven miles of prominent bluffs and rolling hills along the Pacific, most notably the Headlands promontory which overlooks picturesque Dana Point Harbor. Luxurious ocean-view homes and 5-star resorts abound in Dana Point, and Doheny State Park nearby offers camping, picnicking, swimming, surfing, bicycling, tide pools and more.
