Top Long Beach Water Tours

We are the top destination for whale watching in Long Beach and Los Angeles. Our custom built high speed vessels can cover waters north to Santa Monica and south to Newport Beach for maximum range coverage resulting in maximum marine life sighting success. Our fleet of state of the art vessels adhere to strict safety codes and regulations, ensuring you and your friends and family enjoy a wonderful experience out on the water. All whale watching excursions embark under the guidance of highly trained captains not only equipped to man your boat, but also to provide informative narration of the wildlife you might encounter. Marine life we encounter includes: Gray Whales (November-April), Blue Whales (may-November), and year-round we can see Humpback Whales, Fin Whales, Minke Whales, Orcas, Dolphins, Sea Lions, Harbor Seals, rare Marine Birds, and much more!

Experience the vast Pacific Ocean on a private sailboat charter. Bring your own food and drinks, play your favorite tunes, and relax. This adventure includes a USCG Certified Captain who has mastered the art of hospitality. Chances of seeing some sleep seals are high and we have a handful of amenities like pillows, blankets, binoculars, and a Yeti cooler, and table to make sure you have everything you need.

Max earned both his Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Leisure and Recreation Studies. Jolly Sailing's number one priority is safety. We also pride ourselves on providing superb customer service.
