Dolphin and Whale watching trip in San Diego

This was such a unique experience. We were lucky on the extended blue whale tour and did find some blue whales, humpbacks, pods of short-beaked common dolphin , a Mola Mola, a great white shark, as well as a black-footed albatross and California least tern. This tour is a real commitment as we had to go about 65 miles off the coast and were out about 8 hours. The captains were very knowledgeable and fun. And things were done in a safe and respectful manner for people and the animals. Know that there is no guarantee of what you will see, but they try their best and have 3 boats in different areas as well as communicate with others to share sighting info. If you want a more personal experience, this is the company to go with. Dress warm, then add another layer still. And put sunscreen on even if cloudy!

Had an amazing time whale watching! While we were out there for the whales, I have to admit—the dolphins totally stole the show (as you can see in the photo). The captains were incredibly kind and informative, and the boat was clean, comfortable, and fast. Highly, highly recommend this experience!

Anyone interested in viewing Blue Whales, this is your team. What an outstanding experience! Thank you Dom and Erica for the memorable trip. Your professionalism, knowledge, and comfortable vessel made our day a success. You guys are hands down the best.

We enjoyed from gone whale watching team. They had good team. Team it has two sailors a male older man and a young girl. They were good and honest. We traveled into the sea by their speed boat at morning 1st round.at the time doesn’t came whales on the sea but sailors don’t ready return to shore with out saw whales. They ran the boat too far. We excited when we were showing blue whales. Sailors had happy. They explained us about whales.we returned after long time with memories.

WOW 🤩! What an amazing and exciting experience going out with Gone Whale Watching! Captain Ty and Shannon were incredible! They really made for a special trip. They were very knowledgeable and provided us with a lot of information about the marine life we saw and the underwater canyon below. It was really educational. The boat itself, is cozy with some room to move about and I think is an ideal boat for photographers attempting to capture shots of the wildlife. We got up close with some dolphins riding the bow, which made for cool videos on our phones! We also found some humpback whales and it was exhilarating! We were so close and low that made for some magical shots. I really enjoyed my afternoon out with Gone Whale watching, Captain Ty’s expertise was much appreciated and I also felt safe with them on this smaller vessel. It was comfortable and super cool! If you’re in San Diego and want an awesome experience with less people then this is the whale watching tour you want to be on, as well as if you’re aiming to try out that new lens 😉. 10/10 will book again. Thanks Captain Ty & first mate Shannon.
