So glad I booked this!

Published on Jan, 2025

Awesome experience & adventure. This was just the perfect amount of fun, excitement and education, and my guide David was spot on which made this trip even more great. He was super knowledgeable about the surrounding area and history so I learned alot. I booked the 9am tour and I liked that. Water was smooth ad not alot of other activity so we had most of the water onto ourselves. It did get cold though so my layers and gloves helped a ton. Thanks again. I'll be back for sure.

Great Tuesday morning at the San Diego Harbor

The two hour speedboat tour was great, even though the weather was cloudy. I would advise you bring something to cover your head an ears it was still a lot of fun. Our tour guide was very informative and since we took the 9 o’clock tour the waves were not as big and that is great when you’re in a small speedboat.This was my third time doing this tour and I would definitely do it again again.

Highly recommend, will definitely be doing it again

Did the 9am tour with my girlfriend and we had a blast! I recommend if you do the morning tour around this time of year you wear the proper clothes aka layer. The tour guides were great and very helpful.Thank you for the experience.

My 16 yr old son and I took the speedboat tour and had a blast! Saw sea lions, aircraft carriers and more. Great staff

Had a wonderful experience! Boat was simple to operate, Alex was a great tour guide and the price was reasonable! Would do it again next time I am in town.

Love Speed

It was easy and really fun. Very worth the money. I would definitely do it again. They will show you what to do and guide you on the water.
