San Diego looks good from everywhere — but it looks absolutely thrilling from behind the wheel of your own speedboat. The San Diego Harbor Speed Boat Adventure lets you be the captain for the day, zipping across the sparkling bay on a guided, narrated ride that turns the harbor into your personal playground.
Here is the fun twist: you drive your own speedboat while following an expert guide in a separate boat. Stay connected through two-way communication as you hear fun facts and stories about landmarks like the USS Midway and the Coronado Bridge. It is the perfect mix of adrenaline and sightseeing — speed across the water with the wind in your hair while taking in panoramic views of the San Diego skyline.
The tour explores the scenic San Diego Harbor from start to finish, and the enthusiastic commentary makes every minute fly by. Boats are easy to drive and no experience is needed, so it is a fantastic outing for couples, families, and friends looking for something more exciting than a regular harbor cruise.
Prices start at just $89, and this adventure earns rave reviews from travelers (4.8 stars from nearly 800 reviews). If you are looking for one of the most exciting things to do in San Diego, this is it.
