The word charter boat brings to mind whale watching, deep sea fishing and eco-excursions. As silly as it may seem you won’t be able to resist yelling “Thar she blows” when spotting the first, second or third grey whale you see spouting. You might as well practice on the way to the marina so you get it right.

Deep sea fishing is a dream come true for those who love to fish. Imagine having to choose what game fish to go after: halibut, albacore tuna, salmon, lingcod, bottom fishing, and squid fishing. The captains are certified, experienced, and know where the fish are located and biting. Check on the season for the fish you want to go after and expect to have a great time.

Charter tour boats leave port on a regular schedule that takes visitors out for an ocean discovery voyage. The fascinating, unfamiliar sea creatures found in the marine environment are identified and their life stories described by trained guides and biologists. These trips are fun and educational.
