Premier Whale and Dolphin Watching
Small boat is the way to go!
Small boat is the way to go! We were up close and personal with a pod of 300 dolphins. So close they splashed us! Our captain was fantastic and told us a lot about the animals.

Glow Electric Boat night date experience in San Diego Bay
Night Glow Boat Trip
My fiance and I had a great time...Simon, one of the proprietors, gave us some basic instruction in operating the boat, then led us out from the dock into the bay where we were able to motor around the harbor at our leisure...The total time out in the boat was an hour...When we got back to the dock, employees helped us pull the boat in and helped us out of the boat...We would definitely do this again !!!
