Fodor's Expert Review Ocean Institute

Dana Point Family

Marine science and history are the focus at the Ocean Institute, where you'll find indoor tanks with touchable sea creatures, an accessible man-made tide pool, and the complete skeleton of a gray whale. Take a two hour enlightening tide pool hike or a weekend sea cruise to explore the local marine environment with hopefully dolphins or whale-watching spotting year-round.
