BOOKMARK this for your next Family Adventure in San Diego With Captain Jonathan as your Captain and guide, you and your family can enjoy a relaxing 2.5 hour sailboat ride with picturesque views of Downtown San Diego and some sea lions along San Diego Bay. This sailboat is designed for the whole family to enjoy a memorable experience!! Captain Jonathan was wonderful with kids and allowed us to steer the boat. It's incredibly family friendly with a couple rooms, seating area, small kitchen area and bathroom below deck. They even have a cute stuffed monkey as a cute mascot for the kids! My friend, Bonnie and I both brought our 2 boys with us. What a fun adventure!! We enjoyed the beautiful San Diego views and got to see Sea Lions. Captain Jonathan was extremely accommodating and checked with us in regard to preferences. The kids and I enjoyed the selection of snacks and drinks available. Loved the coconut water and Improv Mocktail drinks! What to you need to know: Captain Jonathan included Max 6 people (price varies) Kids under 12 must wear a life jacket Snacks, water, non-alcoholic drinks included (alcoholic beverages allowed) 2.5 sailboat ride It was very easy to book and received confirmation emails leading up to the sailing. This was the most family-friendly, fun, relaxing, enjoyable sailboat tour! Great for when visiting San Diego or as a staycation excursion!! Get ready for a fun adventure!!

A boat and a bay makes for a memorable day with friends. My friends and I booked a private charter on a blustery weekend afternoon. Here are some of the things I loved: - That we could comfortably sit on the front of the boat. - That they provided plenty of wonderful snacks and drinks. Plus we were able to bring our own food for a floating picnic. - Easy parking right at the marina. There's also free parking on Harbor Island Drive, if you're lucky enough to snag one of those spots (2 of us were). - The views and route were beautiful. - The cozy blankets they provide. If you're looking for special day out on the water with your family or friends, this is it!

The Best family adventure in San Diego! Such a fun experience sailing the bay. A special memory not every family has a chance to make. Jonathan and Maya are so kind and really make the whole experience feel special! Definitely a moment we will cherish forever

Loved the experience! First time and definitely not the last one!! We were able to enjoy drinks and snacks on board and played some music too! Our guide was so nice, he told us a few interesting things about other boats we bumped into, and gave us all the info we needed for a safe boat trip! Perfect for a small group or a couple! Best way to experience San Diego bay Ps take a sweater cause it can be a bit chilly!

This is for the small group sunset sail. I took a last minute opportunity to join this sail by myself and I'm so glad I did. Being from San Diego it can be easy to overlook tourist activities because we can do them any time, and then we never do! It was very special to see my city through this tourist lens. I'm grateful to Sea Monkey for experienced and friendly crew to lead us. The boat itself was super clean and cleverly branded while still being classy. Would definitely join again.

BEST SAILING EXPERIENCE. This was something my family did while they were in town. It was so wonderful to see the city from the water. Our captain, Gus had a pleasant demeanor and was very communicative on what to expect with the boat. Which is a beautiful boat. Comfortable seating throughout and amenities like snacks, non alc drinks and blankets. The owner, Maya was kind and she responds quickly. Thank you Sea Monkey Adventures for a memorable sunset sail!

It was my second time with Sea Monkey Adventures & I'm not surprised that it was another good time! It was relaxing & welcoming! The owners & captains are nice! They make sure we have a good & safe ride. I would recommend this company to anyone!

The boat was clean, had blankets for us. The captain handled the boat very well. We had to leave our shoes & socks on the dock & it left our feet cold, but the lower cabin was warm.

Great way to start our morning! Gus was very friendly & also knowledgeable, it was a very clean/spacious boat & overall the trip was very smooth. Would definitely book again!

Loved! Fabulous experience! We're new to San Diego and this was a perfect trip for us. Captain Gus was super personable and even provided drinks, snacks and blankets! Our group had gorgeous views and we will definitely be back with more family!

Today we went on a sailing trip with 11 of us and had an amazing time. Captain Gus was very knowledgeable and kept us informed and intrigued. The boat is beautiful and you could pick in chose what kind of experience you wanted based on sitting location. I would 100% this trip again. Bonus we got to see one seal chilling on a random buoy.

The Sea Monkey is a gem of a boat, spacious, stylish, and perfect for lounging "on the water". As a mom of four, I attended this tour in a group of 12 friends hoping to catch a little break ( and fun) and it was perfect! Whether we wanted to feel like a Titanic star on the bow or relax under the shaded canopy pretending we owned the yacht, there was a spot for everyone. Our captain was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and thankfully patient with our endless stream of questions (and poor Bluetooth troubleshooting skills). Below deck, the galley was stocked with a great selection of snacks and drinks like non-alcoholic ginger beer and juices , but the real win is they let us bring our own Prosecco and mimosas. And there was plenty of room in the galley to set it all up. The galley also had more comfortable seating, blankets to keep cozy( which we brought up on deck), and a restroom. Though none of us napped, there are also two bedrooms, good to know it's an option especially if you're bringing little ones! The partly cloudy and San Diego winter weather didn't dampen the experience. If anything, it gave us an excuse to burrito ourselves in the blankets while cheering at the kites flying over the harbor! Overall, the Sea Monkey provided a personalized, comfortable, and laugh out loud fun experience. Highly recommend this harbor tour! P.S. I will be back with my family someday.

I had the best time being a Sea Monkey today! Our group had an excellent guide and the blankets were a nice touch since it was a little windy. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get out on the water!

See all

Fantastic whale watching experience in San Diego! The weather was perfect, which made the trip even…read morebetter. We were lucky enough to see a whale that truly put on an amazing show--such a memorable moment. The crew was efficient, friendly, and very informative throughout the entire trip, which made us feel comfortable and engaged. Everything was also very budget-friendly, which made it an even greater value. Overall, a great experience and absolutely worth both the time and the money. Highly recommend!

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.

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.
