Oceanside Adventures Celebrates One Year Anniversary

Festivities include discounted excursions, raffle prizes and even a moving mural of sea life.

Oceanside Adventures, San Diego’s premier whale watching company, announces its one-year anniversary in beautiful Oceanside, Calif. On July 1, 2016, Oceanside Adventures will celebrate one year in business with a day full of exciting giveaways, adventures and more. All three whale-watching trips are two hours and will have a raffle, free stuffed whales for kids 12 and under and an anniversary cookie for each guest.

Oceanside Adventures has taken hundreds of families, couples, private parties and corporate event groups to witness more than 380 whales and 88,000 dolphins from its luxurious 47-foot catamaran. Operating year-round from Oceanside Harbor, Oceanside Adventures’ whale watching experience includes knowledgeable and friendly captains and crew narrating along the way as whales spy, hop, breach and fluke.

We have been truly welcomed and supported by this community, especially Visit Oceanside. It’s been a great first year and we look forward to many good years to come in Oceanside.
