We offer whale watching tours, harbor cruises on our boat with underwater windows, cocktail cruises, ash scatterings and we also rent kayaks, canoes and stand-up paddleboards.

There are year round opportunities to see whales on the central coast. The gray whale season typically runs from December-May and the humpback whale season runs from May-November. Summer months are peak season for humpback whales but there are still very good opportunities to see whales outside of the summer time.

There is not a particular time of day that we have more success seeing whales but weather conditions tend to be calmer in the morning. We do our best to depart daily at 9am and will often run trips in the afternoon if the weather permits and we have the demand for it.

Any tour titled “whale watching” is on our primary whale watching boat, The Freedom, which is a 53ft boat that takes out a maximum of 45 passengers. Any tour titled “whale watching catamaran” is on our 33ft catamaran, The Dos Osos, that takes out a maximum of 22 passengers.

• The Whale Watching tours are 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 hours.

• The Sub Sea Tour is 45-60 minutes.

• The Cocktail Cruise is typically around an hour.

We have 3 different tour boats that we can offer for private charters.

• The Seaview is our 28ft boat with underwater windows that can accommodate up to 21 passengers.

• The Dos Osos is our 33ft catamaran that we use for our cocktail cruise and can accommodate up to 22 passengers.

• The Freedom is our 53ft boat that can take out a maximum of 45 passengers.

Please call our office (805)772-9463 and we would be happy to go over the different options and answer any questions you may have.

There is a small parking lot at the top of the ramp of the dock where we are located and a large parking lot across the street from our location. There is also ample street parking (green curbs are ok). The Embarcadero is the main road along the waterfront and during the busy season it may be best to go uphill a block or two and park away from the Embarcadero.

For tours we recommend bringing

• Water

• Snacks

• Sunscreen

• Camera

• Warm clothes

• Adventurous spirit!

Regardless of the time of year we typically encourage everyone to dress warmly (pants and jackets) for the whale watching tour. In Morro Bay it is always a good idea to have a jacket. When kayaking it is easy to get wet and smart to dress accordingly.
