The Festival of Whales celebrates migrating whales who use Dana Point's headland as a landmark on their journey southward. Festivities include whale watching, a street fair, a parade, a classic car show, and an art show.

The festival will also include a Mobile Marine Mammal Museum, a cardboard Dingy Dash, marine mammal lectures, and a kids fishing trip. Bands perform on a specially designed stage for the Concert on the Water.

Visit the festival website for daily schedules and locations. Free shuttles are available to travel between events every day of the festival, from 10am to 4:30pm.
