Surf lessons are gentlest at Moonlight Beach on small summer south swells - skip if the surf is overhead.

Whale watching season peaks January through April for gray whales off the San Diego coast.

·

Most boat trips in this area depart from Oceanside Harbor, about 20 minutes north.

Operators are real local fixtures — confirm current sailing times and prices with each operator before you go. Countdowns run on the real local clock and the sunset sail time is computed from tonight’s actual sunset.
