I LOVE DANA POINT. OK I know I've only been here one day....but this place is sooo cool. Yesterday I started exploring Dana Point, I putted around the beautiful marina in the dinghy, figuring out where the public dinghy docks are, where the restaurants/bars were and checking out all of the mega yachts. The weather yesterday was almost perfect and in the afternoon there were people of all ages gliding past me on paddle boards, kayaks and of course all sorts of boats. Not being one to miss out on any kind of fun, I inflated my own kayak and joined the crowd paddling around this wonderful little cove. I ended the day guess where.....of course happy hour silly, I met two very nice ladies and we talked (and drank) into the night.
I'm not quite ready to forgive "the establishment" for screwing (not the word I wanted to use) up what was once a great surf spot....but let's be real for a moment and realize that unless you were a Dana Point local, your chances of actually catching any waves here would have been slim.
