Just For You - Debbie's Selection of Dana Point Info Sites Dana Point’s Beauty Makes You Real Estate here historically zooms in price Located in southern Orange County, California, Dana Point is approximately half way between Los Angeles and San Diego. It is bordered by the cities of Laguna Niguel and Laguna Beach to the north, San Juan Capistrano to the east, and San Clemente to the south. This City Map will help you get locally oriented. This area map, shows you where we are in South Orange County. Dana Point has 35,000 residents and is blessed with nearly seven miles of high coastal bluffs and gently rolling hills facing the Pacific Ocean. It’s often called “The most romantic city on the California Coast,” and we agree. Make a reservation and you can usually get a perfect window table overlooking Dana Point Harbor at either Cannons Restaurant or The Chart House. Cannons even has a live web cam view of Dana Point Harbor. For an exquisite place to stay high on a bluff over the harbor, choose the Blue Lantern Inn.
The official city web site says, “Most noteworthy of these bluffs is a unique promontory known as the ‘Headlands’ which overlooks Dana Point Harbor, one of the most significant man-made alterations of the Orange County coastline. “Dana Point Harbor provides slips and mooring for over 2,500 boats along with over 50 specialty shops and restaurants. The Harbor attracts thousands of visitors annually for shopping, sportfishing, walking, bicycling, parasailing and a host of recreational activities,” (including whale watching.)
The Dana Point Harbor is also considered the gateway to Doheny State Park, one of California’s most popular beach facilities. The 62-acre State Park offers camping, picnicking, swimming, surfing, bicycling, tide pool exploration and more.”
There is a high demand for homes here since few more can be built and few buildable lots remain in the median price range, which is $402,000 for South Orange County. Still, there are occasionally condominiums and homes in price from as little as $200,000. You’ll need a good local Realtor® to help you find one, though.
In short, Dana Point is one of the most picturesque cities in the world, so bring your camera. Want to move here? You’ll wake up every morning praising yourself that you bought real estate here.
