Great trip! Totally worth the money, we saw lots of dolphins and 5 Fin whales! The trip was great and weather was great. The staffs are very friendly. They know the spots on the ocean where we can spot the dolphins and whales. Very professional.

No whales, lots of dolphins. Whale watch is hit or miss. You can’t call them to come but the trip was pretty good.


Highlights

This cruise departs from Mission Bay in San Diego and heads into the Pacific to look for whales and dolphins. Mission Bay is the shortest route to the open ocean, so you leave the bay in just 10 minutes and spend more time watching for whales. Enjoy year-round whale and dolphin watching with commentary from expert guides and naturalists, plus the friendly service of a family-owned company. Free parking on Quivira Road is included, and if you don’t see whales or dolphins, you can join again for free.


Program

Depart from Mission Bay
and reach the Pacific in 10 minutes

Departing from Mission Bay, the shortest route to the ocean, you leave the bay in just 10 minutes. Cruise the open Pacific, scan the horizon and look for whales, dolphins and other marine life. Trips last 2–2.5 hours in winter (December–February) and 2.5–3 hours from spring to fall (March–November).

 

Listen to guides and naturalists

Expert guides and naturalists bring every view to life with fascinating stories. From spotting a distant whale spout to watching dolphins race alongside the boat, no two trips are the same.

 

Relax aboard a family-run boat

As a family-owned and operated company, the crew welcomes every guest like part of the team. Relax in the spacious indoor or outdoor seating and enjoy food and drinks from the onboard galley and bar.

※ Wildlife lives in its natural habitat, so sightings cannot be guaranteed.
※ If no whales or dolphins are seen, you can join again for free according to the operator’s policy.
※ Tours run rain or shine, but may be canceled or rescheduled for safety if sea conditions are poor.
