Oceanside is special. It is a lovely Pacific Ocean beach location. Long stretches of beach to walk. Nice restaurants. Beautiful weather. Spectacular sunsets.

I was celebrating my daughter's birthday in Oceanside and we took the Dolphin and Whale Tour with Captain Nate. We really enjoyed it. Captain Nate was very friendly and seemed to be a very experienced boat tour guide. It started off slow and after we were out in the ocean, the speed picked up and it was windy. Captain Nate played music while we toured, and he offered us a life jacket and a blanket (to keep ourselves dry from the occasional spray of water from the ocean. We saw several pods of dolphins but no whales. We went approximately 4.5 miles out in the ocean. On our way back we saw several sea lions resting on a buoy. The boat was smaller than what I imagined and there were only 4 people on this tour, but I think that made it more personable and fun. Captain Nate implied that if it weren't so windy, we may have seen more dolphins, but the ocean is unpredictable, and we had a great time.

Great time. Lots of dolphins, a sun fish and even saw some tuna jumping completely out of the water.

We must have had such a different experience from everyone else, because I see people on here saying that they took 2 and 3 year olds on this, and there is NO WAY a toddler could have been on our boat today. Our family of four was greeted by our driver, a woman whose name I don't remember, and we were told "you are gonna get soaked." that surprised me, but we decided to go with it. When I tell you that we were holding on tightly with both hands to avoid flying out of the boat, I'm not kidding. It was so incredibly rough that the boat would fly up off the water, then come crashing back down with a thud. My 12 year old was terrified. After about 20 minutes of this, the driver asked me if I wanted to put a blanked over my jeans because they were about to get soaked. I told her my son was having a tough time with the rockiness, and so she decided to move closer to the shore. After that, at least we were in calmer waters and the ride was a lot less bumpy. We felt much safer, but needless to say, never saw any dolphins or whales. Also, the driver never said another word, other than to tell us we were going to get wet. I would definitely never to on this again, or recommend it to anyone who isn't an adrenaline junkie. My 15 year old daughter, who loves roller coasters, enjoyed it. The rest of us were just happy to get back to shore without being soaked or throwing up. Thank goodness for dramamine.
