Wildlife Cruise in San Diego















Instead of going to SeaWorld in San Diego to see the sea life, we went out into the Pacific Ocean to see it in the wild. We observed whales breaching & waving their flukes (tails) along with cormorant, pelican, & seagull rookeries, plus numerous seal, sea lion & elephant seal colonies and numerous birds, ducks & dolphins along the beautiful coastline. We even observed a blue footed booby chick perched on a rock. Some photos of our cruise to the Los Coronado Islands, a few miles off the coast of Mexico, are attached. It cost only $45 per person (with our discount coupons) to take the 5 hour Nature Cruise from San Diego vs. $60 per person for admission to SeaWorld!!
