With a year-round Mediterranean climate, San Diego water activities and tours are at the top of the list of things to do for locals and visitors throughout the year. Next to spending time relaxing at the beach or on the harbor, there are many activities to spark up some excitement and adrenaline to your day. If you have the need for speed, you can hop on one of the power boat tours to take a whirl around the harbor or rent a jet ski for a thrill riding through the waves. If you are up for an underwater adventure, gear up with a scuba diving or snorkel tour or rent your own gear to explore the beautiful depths of the San Diego coast while getting the chance to witness sea lions, leopard sharks, exotic fish, and more.

Up for learning a new water sport? Surfing, kiteboarding, wakeboarding, and wind surfing are all sports you can learn in the waters of San Diego which will also give you an insight to what the California lifestyle is all about...riding the waves!

If you still want to be active without going as extreme as riding the surf, kayaking is a great option especially around La Jolla Shores and La Jolla Cove where sea lions cover the cliffs and the caves make for an unforgettable experience. Paddle boarding is another awesome choice of how to spend some time out on the water during the day OR night. Day time paddle boarding delivers fun in the sun with great views of the coast while night time paddle board tours offers spectacular views of downtown city lights…truly a surreal experience!
