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!
Typically our trips are 2.5-3 hours in length, but time can vary based on seasons and locations of sightings.

Tremendous experience for both the adults and the children in our party. We spotted three blue whales and one fin whale, along with hundreds of dolphins as we went eight miles out in the Pacific. The excitement among all the passengers only enhanced our own. The crew were outstanding and attentive, helping us spot the whales and explaining their habits. They got superb photographs, which were made available at an additional charge. The skipper seemed very skilled at getting within viewing distance but not too close to be threatening. Wholeheartedly endorse this experience.

The tour was very nice! The staff were attentive and always available. The boat was clean and comfortable. We saw whales and dolphins and had a great time.

Nice and fun crew. Saw hundreds of dolphins, one humpback whale, and a few sea lions. Would recommend.
