Orange County Boater's Guide

The Private Boater's Guide to Orange County

Introducing detailed fishing and diving maps of Orange County's coastline from Seal Beach to San Onofre and all areas in between. This map guide contains a wealth of information for the private boater hailing from Huntington, Newport or Dana Point Harbors.

Our fishing and diving maps are more than just GPS numbers.  We also include fish-holding habitat like kelp beds, rocky reefs and hard bottom areas, eelgrass, docks and artificial reefs, with a calibrated GPS grid overlay so you can pinpoint your next hotspot off the beaten path.

Map Titles

Artificial Reef Maps

Local Boating Knowledge

In addition to fishing regulation boundaries like the new 100-fathom rockfish depth limit, Marine Protected Areas and rule summaries, our maps offer local boating knowledge closer to the harbor. We even have the new public boating channel to Huntington Harbour on our map, which opened in January 2021. Fish and dive with confidence with our Orange County Boater's Guide!

Small Craft Harbor Facilities

Our bay maps Huntington Harbour, Newport Harbor and Dana Pt Harbor show small craft harbor facilities like marinas, fuel docks and boat ramps, Dock n' Dine restaurants, mooring fields, "No Motor" areas, "No Fishing" Areas, 5 mph zones, swimming areas, guest docks, public access docks, kayak launches and more.

Special Thanks to Capt. Mark Wisch

For a detailed description of many of Orange County's most famous fishing spots and more GPS locations than we could fit on a map, we'd like to give a shout-out to Between Two and Twenty Fathoms by Capt. Mark Wisch.  This book is one of the most informative pieces of local fishing knowledge in print today and covers inshore waters from Palos Verdes all the way down the Orange County coast to Dana Point.
