Bay Cruises for SoCal Seafarers (with deals)

How to get deals on Day Cruises from Orange County California

When’s the last time you went whale watching? Seeing blue whales frolicking this close up tops my list of fun things to do in SoCal.

You have to admit Southern California day and evening cruises are fun any time of year, and any time of day, whether it’s a brunch, twilight, dinner, or party cruise. The daytime cruises are especially fun for families, and the evening cruises can be romantic for couples, or a great way to party with friends.

If you want to see whales, now is a great time to go. Blue whale season starts in May and runs through November. All the whale-watching cruises listed below include seasoned captain guides who share stories and talk about local ocean life.

Keep an eye out for dolphins and sea lions, too. Savvy tip: dress in layers, and don’t forget your camera.
