San Diego Whale Watching Tour

Overview

Our trips depart from Mission Bay, which requires only a short 10 minute journey access to the open ocean where whales and dolphins can be seen! The search for whales and other animals begins as soon as you depart the dock and our marine biologists are on the microphone explaining exactly what to expect and what you are seeing from the get go!

The cruise was very professionally presented. The crew knew where the dolphins and whales were located. The ride was fairly smooth, though a few people had to take sea sickness meds. Having a naturalist on board really made it better. They really know their busines.

Okay, doesn't matter what boat you take...they all head to the same area, anyway! It's a hit or miss if you see any, but the boat ride is an adventure, anyway...always a big plus if you see the whales!

Came to San Diego from the mid west with my daughter for her 12th birthday. Did the afternoon whale watch. It is something that we will never forget. We saw 6 gray whale and over 200 dolphin. Lots of fun birds and sea lions as well. I did get a little sea sick about 2 hours into the trip but that didn't stop me from having a wonderful time. My daughter can't stop talking about how cool it was.
