Private Dolphin Tours Dana Point
One of the best places to see dolphins in Southern California is at Dana Point.
Common dolphins gather in large pods and are often seen in the local waters in hundreds. Bottlenose dolphins are also frequently seen close to the shoreline and harbor entrance.
An aspect of our private dolphin tours that is particularly unique is observing dolphins in their natural habitat, surfing their wake, leaping out of the water, and interacting with them in a natural way.
With your tour private, your captain can focus on providing you with as many opportunities as possible to see wildlife while making your tour a relaxing experience for your group.
