… for Romance
The city’s namesake, Richard Henry Dana Jr., in his book Two Years Before the Mast, described Dana Point as “the most romantic place on the coast.” We couldn’t agree more.
Romantic Dining An abundance of the city’s eateries offer romantic touch-
es, from ocean and Harbor views to outdoor patios and intimate dining rooms. Enjoy the company of a loved one fireside on the outdoor patio at Salt Creek Grille. With delicious food, spirits and live music, an evening here is perfect for date night. Wine and romance go together, and a great place to enjoy both is The Wine Bistro. Their budget-friendly three-course, three-wine Monday Night Wine Dinner is a popular weeknight choice.
