Dana Point is one of Orange County’s most scenic and serene coastal towns, offering a laid-back lifestyle, walkable harbor, and some of the best ocean views in Southern California. It’s where resort luxury meets beach-town charm — perfect for those who love the water, open space, and community.
At the heart of Dana Point is the iconic Dana Point Harbor, filled with sailboats, waterfront dining, boutiques, and outdoor events. Whether you’re paddleboarding in the marina, watching whales from the cliffs, or enjoying sunset at Baby Beach, the connection to the coast is unmatched.
The city is home to some of South Orange County’s most desirable real estate — from blufftop homes in The Strand and Niguel Shores to luxury condos overlooking the water in Lantern Bay. Each neighborhood offers its own flavor of coastal living, whether you want a gated estate or a beach-close bungalow.
Dana Point also hosts an active event calendar with highlights like the Dana Point Festival of Whales, summer concerts in the park, art walks, and wine tastings. It’s also home to five-star resorts like the Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach and the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel.
For those looking to enjoy a true Southern California coastal lifestyle with a luxury edge, contact Verso Homes to learn more about homes for sale in Dana Point and find your perfect ocean-view escape.
