Every summer, the legendary Blue Whale—the largest animal on Earth—migrates through San Diego’s offshore waters. Our exclusive long-range expeditions provide the rare opportunity to witness these gentle giants along with Fin Whales, Offshore Bottlenose Dolphins, Common Dolphins, Sea Lions, and more.

Venturing up to 100 miles offshore, our expert crew navigates nutrient-rich waters to maximize encounters with these incredible marine mammals. This semi-private expedition offers a personalized, intimate experience aboard our high-speed Zodiac RIBs, designed for comfort, speed, and proximity to wildlife.
