San Diego Zeehondentour
This 90-minute fully-narrated journey departs from Seaport Village located on Harbor Drive at the Embarcadero. As you travel along the beautiful Big Bay by land, you will hear stories of early sailors as well as the history of the 14-mile long working bay. You also will learn about the importance of the military in San Diego. Pass by San Diego International Airport, dedicated to aviator Charles Lindbergh, just one of the many people you will hear about on your San Diego Seal Tour.
Then, you will splash down into the San Diego Bay off Shelter Island, where you begin the water-tour segment of the journey. As the seal travels through the north end of the Big Bay, keep your eyes peeled for a chance encounter with a California brown pelican. The Big Bay provides views of Point Loma, home to the Cabrillo National Monument, Naval Air Station North Island, the Point Loma Submarine Base and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The area is a popular playground for seals and sea-lions so keep your eyes out during your San Diego duck tour - make that seal tour!
Return to land where you will return to your starting point via Harbor Drive, passing the Maritime Museum and Cruise Ship Terminal along the way.

I love going to cities and learning the history. The two older gentleman we had were great! Would recommend to anyone coming to San Diego!
A wonderful way to see San Diego's beautiful waterfront, and to hear about the amazing naval history of this city. My grandsons loved this.
The Seal Tour was great - the guide was very informative and made it very interesting. Would recommend this to others
My young kid enjoy the ride especially when went down to the sea from the land.. she love the ride!!
This tour was so much more fun that we had expected! Very informative and a great way to see sights from a different perspective. Covered a lot of ground because there is no traffic on the water.
Fun, informative tour. I definitely got a kick out of the vehicle driving into the water!
Had a great time with our 10 yr old granddaughter - a unique experience. I wish there had been more to see and a bit closer to land for better views, but otherwise great time.
This tour was amazing. Fun from beginning to end. Captain Hal and First Mate Tom were awesome. We had a great time.
This tour was well worth our time and money!!! Excellent! Danny and Tracy made the experience Great!
