Great experience!

What a great experience! It made it so easy to just park, walk to the water taxi dock and within a short time we were across the harbor. We even saw some dolphins which was exciting for some of the kids on board. Our pilots on both trips were awesome, fun and informative and friendly! Our pilot on the way back even took us up close and personal to the USS Yorktown. It was so nice to be able to hop on and off where we wanted to without any difficulty. We’d do it again for sure

Scenic trip with dolphins

Great time and the kids got to see dolphins. The driver of the boat slowed down so everyone got to see and take pictures

Good value

Finding the taxi boat launch near the battle ship is not easy to find, gated parking lot that was $13 to park for a one hour ride. Captain was very friendly with the passengers good service. Saw 3 dolphins calm waters.

A relaxing, soothing ride...

A relaxing, soothing ride on the water. If you don’t bring your own water, they have bottles available for $2 once you’re underway.
