A walking extravaganza of sight and sound, the annual Dana Point Holiday Lights show is a keeper. Stroll from the Wind and Sea parking lot, through Candy Cane lane, and all the way to the Ocean Institute for an eyeful of dazzling holiday lights and cheer.

The lights went “live” at Thanksgiving and will remain up through New Year’s. The event is free, and parking at the Harbor is free.
