Dolphin and Whale Watching Safari, Dana Point, 2.5 Hours

Dolphin and Whale Watching Tour Dana Point

It’s one of Orange County’s highest-rated whale watching and dolphin tours for a reason.

Southern California has the greatest density of dolphins per square mile of anywhere on earth. Also frequenting Dana Point’s waters are great white sharks, mako sharks, thresher sharks, and more, as well as sea lions, seals, pelagic birds, sea turtles, and many other aquatic animals. Dana Point is an official Whale Heritage Site certified by the World Cetacean Alliance and is the Dolphin and Whale Capital of the World®.
