Flagship Cruises & Events, formerly called San Diego Harbor Excursion, has operated boats on San Diego’s harbor since 1915. The company’s guests can enjoy several cruise options: 

The Patriot Jet Boat Thrill Ride takes passengers on a 30-minute, high-speed ride. The open-air jet boat means travelers will have excellent views of San Diego between spins, twists and turns. 

San Diego Whale Watching Tours run from December through April and get sightseers up close with the whales and marine life of the San Diego coast. Tours are led by a naturalist from the Birch Aquarium. 

Dining and cocktail cruises include the Hops on the Harbor cruise every Friday, which features local breweries, the Sunday Prime Rib Dinner cruise, and nightly dinner cruises on 
San Diego Bay.
