Dana Wharf Whale Watching began in 1971 and was the first whale watching company in Orange County. We offer several unique, year-round, whale watching experiences, the most popular of which is our signature whale and dolphin-watching tour. A two-hour journey off the coast of Dana Point Harbor that puts you in close proximity to some of the ocean's most beautiful animals including Gray whales, Minke whales, Humpback whales, Fin whales, and Blue whales which can be as big as 100 feet long, and also on rare occasions Cetaceans like the Killer Whales.
