Dock wisdom

Solana Beach has no harbor; the ocean trips run out of Oceanside or Mission Bay, and the cove reef is a shore paddle.

Morning water is glassy before the afternoon onshore wind builds.

The reef and tidepools open on a minus tide; check the tide chart before you go.

Whale watching is best December to April for gray whales, June to September for blue and humpback whales.

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.
