The plaque says, "This plaza is dedicated in memory of Don Hansen, the founder of Dana Wharf Sportfishing and Whale Watching - the
first business to operate from Dana Point Harbor in 1971.

Don loved the ocean and was dedicated to the conservation of
marine life. His understanding and appreciation of the ocean
introduced thousands of visitors and locals to fishing and whale
watching in Southern California. His legacy will live on through
memories made while aboard Dana Wharf vessels.

Don was the founder of the Dana Point Festival of Whales, the
longest running festival of whales in the world, which also
assisted Dana Point being named the Dolphin and Whale
Watching Capital of the World®. Don will be remembered every
day by his family, friends, and the community he so loved."
