San Diego boat tours with a human touch. No nickel-and-diming, no grumps.

Because kindness is contagious.

Since 2006, our easygoing and caring crew has taken over 30,000 guests diving, cruising and adventuring from Quivira Basin in Mission Bay β€” San Diego’s closest commercial pier to the open ocean. Join weekly public trips to Wreck Alley, the Point Loma and La Jolla kelp forests or the Coronado Islands, or book private charters aboard one of our three boats: Humboldt, Orion or Island Time. Whatever you choose, expect a safe and uplifting day on the water β€” the perfect backdrop for some well-deserved you time.
