We were lucky enough to see a whale that truly put on an amazing show--such a memorable moment.

Heard it was migration season so decided to book a 9am tour on a Friday…read more The tour was two and a half hours long and we saw so many dolphins it was bananas! We also saw a baby grey baleen whale which was such a treat. But even sightings aside it was a lovely way to be out on the water. The crew to our boat were great. Knowledgeable and ensured everyone was having a good time. They recommend you get there 45 minutes early and definitely do so! You sign in and then line up. A lot of people can be fit on their boat (if you get the group one) and the line can get pretty large and it's first come first sit. For 10 bucks a pop you can go on early. For 200 dollars you get the exclusive front top deck. I recommend sitting at the top. Please note that means sometimes no shade so bring a hat. You can sit on the first level or inside in the shade. The boat has a bathroom and after 3 miles you can get drinks! If you park in the lot attached to their location it's 10 dollars. Or you can street park on Quivera road which I recommend as it was super easy and not a walk at all. Would highly recommend regardless of if you see any whales just for the joy of being out on the water.

From beginning, during and end, Dave was really easy to communicate with. He put us directly in contact with the food vendor, helped carry all the extras onto the yacht, and pretty much let us set it and forget it. The staff was also top notch. The bartender and captain (Brittany and Drew) were very sweet, always letting me know the timeline, made sure we got group photos against the San Diego skyline, and packed all the extra food/alcohol we had left so nothing was left behind. We got to use our phone to bump the music and the stop of Glorietta bay to swim was epic. 10/10 recommend and will most likely book again in the future. Thanks Dave and team!

He explained the route to take and how to steer the boat. It was definitely a great time. Something different for mother's day.

I had about four mimosas in the time, and the food was decent, though I didn't get to fully enjoy it because I went upstairs to check out the deck and came back to find my untouched plate had already been cleared. That said, the staff was friendly and the views were beautiful. The boat mainly does a loop around the water.

The boat has seating downstairs, upstairs, and outside, so there are plenty of options depending on whether you want shade or to be out in the open enjoying the views. There's also a bar on board with drinks (including alcohol) and snacks available. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but that's pretty expected for this type of experience. The crew members were awesome - friendly, organized, and made the trip really enjoyable. The views were beautiful, especially being out on the water during the evening. Overall, we had an amazing time, and it was a really fun way to spend part of the night.

Few things to note - it can be windy and cold on the return portion of the cruise so layer up to be cozy/comfortable. Also note that seasonally in SD the months of May and June typically have a marine layer overcast so it may be a gamble. The staff were the nicest folks and are very friendly and helpful. There are drinks and light snacks (think chips) for you to enjoy onboard. Overall a fun way to spend an evening in SD!

If you're looking for an amazing private cruise, definitely book with San Diego Boat Cruises!! We were on Miss Jen II (50' yacht) and it comfortably fit 12 women (the max occupancy). We all fit under the covered seating in the back of the boat together as well as on the bow at the same time. Below deck was nice, although we didn't spend much time down there aside from using the two bathrooms or making drinks in the kitchenette. The boat was equipped with a huge JBL speaker, phone chargers, a cooler with ice, soft drinks, water bottles, mixers, cups, and snacks (assorted chips). We brought our own alcohol, sandwiches, and extra snacks since we cruised at lunch time. We were on the water from 12-3:30pm and even though the day was cloudy, it didn't spoil our fun. The time flew by! We started the trip all seated in the covered area as we were cruising by the seals and to Point Loma. We cruised through San Diego Bay and ended up anchoring at Glorietta Bay, partying on the bow. The whole trip was a blast and Captain Paul was wonderful! He even got some great photos and videos for us! I booked the trip with Captain Glenn, who was easy to coordinate with. Overall I highly recommend San Diego Boat Cruise and would book with them again for any special occasion.
