Summary
Once a legendary surf haven known as Killer Dana, this wild break in Dana Point was a surfer’s nightmare and dream—steep, rocky, and unforgiving. Big waves, shallow rocks, and brutal wipeouts made it a proving ground for legends like Phil Edwards. But everything changed when the harbor was built in 1966, erasing the spot and reshaping the coastline forever. Now, only echoes remain—until screenings at the Killer Dana Surf Shop bring the past back to life. And hey, they’ve got ice cream too.
