Overview
Take the wheel on this speedboat adventure of San Diego Bay! Your experience includes a thrilling self-guided ride across the bay so you can navigate where you go and what you see.
The vessels all come with safety equipment that has been approved by the Coast Guard and use super-quiet, eco-friendly, 30-horsepower outboard motors.
You don't need to be an experienced driver to pilot the boats either. They're controlled with a steering wheel that handles just like a car, and the throttle only has three positions. And you'll get a full safety briefing with instructions before you set sail.
Along the way, you'll get views of the Navy Ships, the USS Midway aircraft museum, Coronado Bridge, famous Star of India, and the Seaport Village.
What's included
You'll be in control of your very own vessel and given the power to whizz your way around the harbor
Includes rental of a 13-foot boat for up to two passengers

Great
Cinoma ·Keyone was very personable and a great Taurus. I’m so sorry if I misspelling his name.
Excellent time
Walt ·Fast and fun highly recommend . The 4 stops were extremely informative
Awesome!
Eric Forney ·Took my son and we loved it. The guy who gave the tour( Kenny) I think? He was great and made for a relaxing but exciting trip! Worth it.
Speed boat was fun but not managed well
Susan H ·The speed boat tour was fun once we finally got on it. But we were told to arrive 30 minutes early to fill out a waiver that took 5 minutes so we waited 25 minutes in weather over 100 degrees and then the tour guide decided to wait 20 MINS PAST OUR TOUR TIME for a couple who showed up late. Really?! So instead of leaving at the tour time of 1pm, we waited for 25mins before 1pm and 20 minutes after 1pm in weather over 100 degrees. 45 minutes in the blazing heat. Was NOT happy. The tour itself was fine and even fun but I was so mad about the poor beginning and it left a bad taste in my mouth.
영어잘하지 못하면 못타고 시간과 돈만 버림
leejinhak ·마이클은 아주 무례하고 예의가 없습니다 미국에 와서 이런사람을 만나다니 정말 운이없네요 외국인임을 인지하고도 빠르게 설명을 해나갔고.. 못알아들으니까 한숨을 푹..쉬는 태도 절대 잊혀지지가 않네요.. 저희아들딸들은 영어를 잘해서 중간중간 나에게 통역을 해주었는데..그때마다 핸들에 손을 툭툭치며(짜증을참는액션) 한숨을 깊게 내쉬던모습이 잊혀지지않습니다 단,한번도 외국인을 위해 천천히 말하고 설명시켜주지않았고 영어를 못하니 탑승을 거부한다는 예의없는 태도에 너무 기분이 나빴습니다 원어민처럼 영어 잘하시는분들만 이용하는걸 추천드립니다 우리에게낭비된 2시간과 주차비용.. 시간만 버리고 결국 탑승하지 못했습니다 마이클은 가이드라는 직업이 맞지않는 사람입니다
Awesome experience
