1968 Map of Dana Point

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

San Juan Capistrano serves as a focal point for this late 1960s coastal survey, where the historic community meets the developing corridor along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The coastline is defined by the significant infrastructure of Dana Point Harbor and the protected waters of Dana Cove, transitioning into the residential and recreational landscapes of Capistrano Beach and San Clemente. This era captures a region in transition, balancing established landmarks like the San Juan Hills Country Club with new educational and medical facilities, including the Forster Jr HS and local hospital. Along the shore, Doheny State Beach and Three Arch Bay provide a detailed look at the maritime geography from Mussel Cove down to Poche, during a period of rapid suburban growth in southern Orange County.
