Tour experience

• Exciting, adventurous rides: The tours are often described as thrilling, with fast rides that feel like a high-speed adventure. This is unlike some slower, larger tour boats, and Captain Michael balances this thrill with a strong emphasis on safety.

• Personalized, small-group feel: The tours are conducted on a 32-foot power catamaran, the Obispeño, which accommodates a maximum of six passengers. This small group size provides a more intimate and personal experience, ensuring everyone gets a great view.

• Range of wildlife and scenic sights: During the tours, guests have excellent opportunities to see a variety of marine life, including humpback whales, dolphins, sea otters, and seals. In addition, the tours showcase coastal landmarks like Fossil Point Sea Caves and the Point San Luis Lighthouse.
