Visiting San Diego again we decided to take advantage of San Diego Whale Watch’s Free Ride policy, since we saw no whales or dolphins on our previous ride. We were cheerfully welcomed to ride again at no charge with no questions asked.
Despite a steady breeze, our 3-hour ride was fairly smooth, and commentary by our hosts was interesting and informative. A variety of beverages including beer was available for sale, as well as snack items and virtually everything which could make the ride fun and comfortable. We traveled at least 6 or 7 miles out, and although we saw no whales or dolphins we weren’t really surprised because August isn’t whale-watching season. This was still a thoroughly enjoyable 3 hours out on the Pacific Ocean, and who could complain about that?
True to their promise, everyone received a free pass for another ride in search of whales, and when we’re back in town we might just try a third time!
