Which Cruise is Best For You?

San Diego Harbor: 2-Hour Cruise with Live Guide

Spend two hours on San Diego Bay with a live guide sharing the stories behind the skyline, the waterfront and the bay’s naval heritage.

San Diego: 90-Minute Seal Tour with Amphibious Bus

See the city from the road and the water on San Diego’s amphibious sightseeing tour, which departs from Seaport Village and splashes into San Diego Bay off Shelter Island, with entertaining narration all the way.

San Diego: Patriot Jet Boat Thrill Ride

Hold on for a 30-minute blast across San Diego Bay aboard the Patriot, a 70-foot jet boat with two 1,400-horsepower engines, 360-degree spins and views of the city skyline and the Coronado Bridge.

Good to Know Before You Go

The Patriot jet boat departs from 990 North Harbor Drive, next to the USS Midway Museum. Expect to get wet, leave valuables behind, and note that rides may be canceled due to weather.

The Patriot isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant, have high blood pressure, heart, neck or back problems, are prone to motion sickness, or have had recent surgery, and guests must be able to board without help from the crew.

The SEAL Tour departs from Seaport Village and is open-air, so bring a light jacket. Wheelchair-accessible vehicles are available at Seaport Village with at least 24 hours’ notice.

Seaport Village and the Patriot’s dock are both on the downtown waterfront near the USS Midway Museum, so a cruise pairs easily with a day on the Embarcadero.
