Description

San Diego is one of the best locations to watch whales year-round! You'll head out of the bay into the open ocean on board a large boat to look for the whales on the surface of the water. In summer, the legendary Blue Whales - the largest animals on Earth - and Humpback Whales commonly feed off-shore of the San Diego coast. We also often spot Minke Whales, Fin Whales, and large pods of Dolphins. Occasionally we even see Pilot Whales, False Killer Whales , Sperm Whales and Killer Whales on our cruises!  Featuring professional live narration on marine life from our expert captains and volunteer naturalists from the San Diego Natural History Museum. 

This cruise is currently only offering outdoor seating options only. We are fortunate to have beautiful outdoor decks that are available for sightseeing on San Diego Bay.  Food and beverage service will be available at outdoor tables. Access to the outer decks is by stairs only and you will have access to restrooms. We have great weather on the bay right now, we would just recommend you bring a hat, light sweater or jacket and of course your shades!
