Hop aboard a whale watching adventure with our partner cruise lines for a chance to see whales out in the wild! Our Whaler volunteers join every whale watching cruise offered by City Cruises San Diego and Legacy Whale Watch, making each voyage fun and educational. You’ll learn about ocean wildlife and conservation as you enjoy a day out on the water spotting dolphins, seals, and sea lions, migrating gray whales in the winter, and majestic blue whales in the summer.
Our longtime partners at City Cruises San Diego offer a seasonal whale watching experience aboard the Adventure, a 500-passenger boat launching from Downtown San Diego. Enjoy up-close views of the bay’s wildlife and our city’s beautiful skyline.
Our newest partners at Legacy Whale Watch offer a year-round San Diego Whale Watching Tours aboard the Legacy, an intimate 115-passenger boat launching from Seaforth Landing in Mission Bay. The proximity of the dock to the open ocean means you’ll see wildlife just a few minutes after setting sail.
