Strand Beach Elevator is an inclined elevator in Dana Point, California that transports people between a beach area and a hilltop, making the beach accessible. A developer agreed to construct this amenity for the city as part of an overall deal for a large real estate development. It was completed and opened in 2009, and ownership and operation was turned over to the city.{{cite news|title=Dana Point's beach elevator open this weekend |url=http://www.ocregister.com/articles/city-225646-funicular-open.html|newspaper=Orange County Register|first= Vik |last=Jolly|date=December 23, 2009|access-date=10 January 2019}}{{cite news|url=https://www.ocregister.com/2010/01/06/all-aboard-for-dana-point-beach-elevator/|title=All aboard for Dana Point beach elevator|newspaper=Orange County Register|first= Vik |last=Jolly|date=January 6, 2010|access-date=10 January 2019}}{{cite news|url=https://www.ocregister.com/2016/01/27/new-cliffside-cable-car-to-dana-points-strand-beach-debuts/|title=New cliffside cable car to Dana Point’s Strand Beach debuts|newspaper=Orange County Register|first= Erika I. |last=Ritchie|date= January 27, 2016|access-date=10 January 2019}}{{cite news|url=https://www.ocregister.com/2010/01/07/dana-point-strand-vista-park-opened/|title=Dana Point Strand Vista Park opened|newspaper=Orange County Register|date= January 7, 2010|access-date=10 January 2019}}
