BEACHES
Dana Point’s coastline is brimming with stunning beaches where ocean waves meet the sand on one side and majestic cliffs line the other. From the
wave-free waters of Baby Beach behind the Harbor breakwater, to the iconic surf breaks at Salt Creek, Strand, Doheny and Capistrano, the city offers a wide variety of beaches perfect for relaxation, water sports and tide pool exploration. Each has its own unique character but all offer breathtaking views and a myriad of opportunities to participate in the classic Southern California coastal lifestyle.
