Dana Point Parks and Recreation. One of the most beautiful cities in California features fantastic weather and well-kept parks that are a joy to visit. Pride of ownership is visible in Dana Point where landscaping and cleanliness are apparent. Visit the local parks for relaxation and entertainment, including special events such as 2 Egg Hunts and Bunny Visit in the spring when the grass is lush and green.

The City of Dana Point's 23 parks are open to the public with some facilities available without charge or reservation, on first-come, first-served basis. If you want to plan an event such as a wedding or corporate picnic, call (949) 248-3530. danapoint.org
