Description:

Scream across the waters of San Diego Bay in a turbo-charged jet boat and head out into the open ocean to get up-close glimpses of migrating gray whales. This fast-paced excursion takes you to thrilling sites where southern California’s biggest aquatic visitors come to stay on their way to Mexico.

Hop aboard the 70-foot (21-m), 2,800 horsepower vessel Patriot and sit down in one of its comfortable, red leather seats. As the engine idles, your captain offers a brief introduction to the boat and its incredible capabilities, including reaching top speeds of up to 50 mph (80 km/h). Find out just how fast that is when you leave the docks and shoot out into San Diego Bay.

Rocket into the Pacific Ocean to investigate the most likely spots for viewing pods of majestic gray whales. Slow to a gentle crawl, looking for characteristic blasts from their blowholes and the awe-inspiring acrobatics of their breaching maneuvers. If you're lucky, you might get the chance to snap photos of good-natured calves, making the journey for the first time, or hear the faint sounds from their fascinating vocalizations.

On your way back to shore, enjoy a few wild spins, drifting turns, and throttle-stomping straightaways before you reach the calm waters of the marina.
