It's hard to believe that is has been 29 years since the Ocean Institute first celebrated the first Toshiba Tall Ships Festival in Dana Point. This is a beautiful event for those boat lovers and kids, as everyone gets to see and explore real working tall ships.Â
There's plenty of activities planned, including:
- Interactive living-history encampments  and demonstrations
- Knot tying races
- Great returning and new musical and dance acts for all ages
- Ship tours
- Friendly 'Pirate School': walk and sing like a pirate!
- Art and the Sea workshop series
Â
Visit the Ocean Institute and explore the sea creatures living inside this beautiful facility. Learn about the Ocean Institute's work on protecting the local watersheds through hands-on labs and art activities.
Many vendors and food and drinks will be for sale.
When:Â September 7th and 8th, 2013Â (Tall ships parade at sunset September 6th)
Where: Ocean Insititute in Dana Point and Baby Beach.
Remember the Ocean Institute's Parking Lot will be closed because of the event. There's a nearby parking lot, but also free parking and shuttle service will be available at: Salt Creek Beach Park at Pacific Coast Highway and Selva Road.
