Whale Watching: Delight in the exciting sights and sounds of the many types of magnificent ocean creatures that live off the coast of Dana Point - a known landmark for whale sightings. Dana Wharf's tours offer rare glimpses into a huge variety of underwater wildlife that you'll never forget.

November through April is Grey Whale season. Come witness for yourself the rare sight of this majestic, endangered creature. Watch them as they migrate south and travel close to shore! Found only in the Pacific Ocean, this magnificent marine mammal is a sight you'll never forget. You'll also see Dolphins galore. We see many types of dolphins - common, Risso's, and bottle-nosed - all year long! Don't forget your camera, as schools of playful dolphins often frolic around the boat! All of our cruises are narrated by our seasoned captains who will educate you on the abundant ocean life on our coast.

Sport Fishing: Our landing caters to the novice as well as the seasoned fishermen. Our knowledgeable crew and expert skippers are always eager to help educate and instruct, if needed. The types of fish available to catch vary depending on the season and water temperature. They include Halibut, Barracuda, Yellowtail, White Sea Bass, Sand Bass, Calico Bass, Bonito, and even Tuna. You never know what you might reel in, and that is part of the magic of fishing.

Our vessels are clean, and they offer a full galley with hot and cold food. Beer, soda, chips and candy are available for purchase (sorry, no coolers can be brought aboard the boat). If you do not have fishing gear, we have rods and reels to rent from $12 - $18, and a day license for anyone over 16 years of age is required. Come join us for an adventure you will never forget. You just might get hooked on fishing!
