I got a free pass for a 1-hour cruise from my hotel. I took at North Harbor cruise at the end of the day on a weekend. Boat is a bit old. Drinks and snacks are available but people kept complaining that there was a line. As others have said, the bot first goes to the South side and then returns to the dock and passengers disembark unless they have signed up for the 2-hour cruise. The South Harbor passengers then get on and have to find available seats. This wasnāt a problem since people move around to take pictures, go downstairs, etc. Bring a jacket since it gets chilly once in open water. I enjoyed the North Harbor views - you get to see Point Loma, part of the Navy Base and gorgeous views of the city! Narration was excellent - brief and interesting. You can get your picture taken before boarding by a professional photographer. Cost was $10-$20.
