His daughter, Donna Kalez, is now COO of Dana Wharf and one of the driving forces behind Dana Point becoming the first Whale Heritage Area in the Americas.

While this year may have been different, we’re glad to hear the 50th annual @DPWhaleFest still went off with a splash! Last weekend, whale watchers were greeted by #graywhales, #humpbacks & Patches, a famous local Dana Point dolphin.
