Dana point Lantern district is a district with a history. The streets name are so different they named after different color lanterns which are maritime signals. like Ruby Lantern, Blue Lantern and etc and they are on The main avenue Del Prado. There is also Elephants on Parade which is my fav part of this beautiful district. It's very walkable, full of restaurants, art galleries, boutique shoos and etc. the other cute thing about the city is the free trolley...It gives SF vibes. The area is full of bikes, and golf carts so be-careful when driving around. The sign itself its picturesque surrounded with gorgeous palms...The weather today was gorgeous so we spend longer tike walking around neighborhood...lil bit busy so parking is challenging...Heavy parking limited spots so it's important when you arrive. There are different events going on like car shows and etc. by saying this, if you are going there for restaurants check the local news to skip the crowded places.... read more
