Whale Watching & Shuttle Service Information
The incredible 5000-mile migration of the majestic California Gray Whale from Alaska to Mexico begins in December and continues through March. During this peak season, 40 – 50 whales pass by Dana Point each day, using the Dana Point Headland's 200-foot cliffs near the harbor as a landmark to check their migration path. Dana Point offers the BEST whale watching along the California Coast – don't miss it. There's a whale watching excursion for everyone – Please visit www.festivalofwhales.com for pricing and schedules.
FREE Shuttle Service
FREE Shuttle Service is available every day of the Festival from 10 am to 4:30 pm. Park and ride free all day long and migrate with the whales! For a map with shuttle starts, visit www.festivalofwhales.com.
