The beaches at Dana Point still warm the heart of those who watched the cult classic surfing film Endless Summer, reliving their Dana Point beach dreams. The Point was also one of the favorite spots for author Richard Henry Dana, Jr., who wrote Two Years Before the Mast, wherein he described the area. It was he who the town was named after and much of his history is still evident. In surfing’s early days, Dana Point’s Killer Dana break was so well known for its dangerous manoeuvring around the San Juan Rocks, the word spread and the beach became home to many of the world’s first serious surfers and surfer product companies. However in 1966, when a new harbor was built, the beloved break was destroyed by a jetty. In 1997, the surf group The Chantays recorded an instrumental named Killer Dana in remembrance of the historic break.

Just south of the Point, and now for sale, is a contemporary beachfront house with architecturally pronounced angled roof lines and large walls of glass overlooking the beach and the coveted waves. Designed by Robert Quigley, the 3,500-square-foot house has two-story glass ceilings and walls allowing for sunlight, moonlight and the ocean view to fill the living space. Located on Beach Road, it is one of the few beach house access roads that is gated with 24/7 security patrol. The 68-foot double lot extends to the high tide mark and the house includes three bedrooms, five baths, gourmet kitchen and a private walk-in wine cellar with tasting area. The open floor plan and outdoor living areas are perfect for entertaining family and friends.
