Captain Dave's Dolphin and Whale Safari offers you the opportunity to get close to and view the exquisite California dolphins and California whales, as well as other beautiful sea creatures. Southern California whale watching can be one of the most peaceful and exciting adventures of your lifetime. We leave from Dana Point Harbor and take you on a 2 1/2 hour ocean adventure. Dana Point is located near Sea World California (approximately 60 minutes away). Captain Dave Anderson is an experienced Marine naturalist who has been leading dolphin trips and whale watching from Dana Point since 1995. He has also created and produced the award winning documentary "Wild Dolphins and the Whales of Southern California ".
