  • EXPLORE BEAUTIFUL SAN DIEGO BY BOAT!

    From wining and dining, to whale watching and adventuring — make memorable waves on San Diego scenic cruises!

    Plan a romantic evening for a special someone. Go whale watching with the entire family. Brave a high-speed San Diego boat ride! Or enjoy a unique way to unwind with friends. No matter what reason floats your boat, Virgin Experience Gifts offers an array of once-in-a-lifetime outings on the water!

    One of the best ways to embark on San Diego sightseeing is by boat. Glide along the Bay, taking in the picturesque views of the city, while sunlight sparkles across gentle waves. And choose your favorite way to do it! Take a private tour of San Diego's islands aboard a high-speed RIB watercraft. Go a step further and hop into the water itself to swim and snorkel during the boat's scenic 'pit stops.'

    Looking for a more relaxing ambiance? End the day aboard a stylish yacht, on the Sights and Sips Sunset Cruise in San Diego Bay. With sparkling cider or bubbly in hand, sit back and admire magnificent scenery, while savoring light hors d'oeuvres among the company of family or friends. Or marvel at the breathtaking canals and waterways of the Coronado Cays, snuggled beside your main squeeze with blankets and wine on a Romantic Gondola Cruise in San Diego.

    Hungry for more of the finest food on the H2O? San Diego scenic cruises feature brunch and dinner options, offering guests the perfect opportunity to celebrate a special occasion or dazzle-up date night. Start your week off right — with a late Sunday morning Champagne Brunch Cruise! Indulge in bottomless bubbly or sparkling cider, along with private seating, a gourmet buffet spread, cash bars, and music as you sail past San Diego attractions and landmarks. Prefer your cuisine plated? Try the San Diego Dinner Cruise, wining and dining as the sun sets and the stars start to glisten.

    Even the finest collection of scenic cruises wouldn't be complete without the most impressive feature of the Pacific waters: San Diego whale watching! Choose from a variety of outing options, to best suit your preferred experience: private boat rides, public excursions, high-speed watercraft, leisure yacht, schooner, eye-level viewing or bird's-eye perspective, and more. Hop aboard San Diego scenic cruises today, for an unforgettable wildlife adventure!
