Private Charter Whale Watch or Coastal Tour
This is your own private boat, for one flat rate! Our captain is under your personalized direction, allowing you to adopt your own pace or focus. Offers a cost savings per person compared with the public trip. Duration ranges from 2 to 2.5 hours.
Newport Coastal Adventure Classic Dolphin and Whale Watching
Serving passengers to an up-close and personal ocean wildlife experience, we go faster and farther than anyone else for a mission accomplished. Capt. Ryan has carefully crafted the best in class experience for enjoying Southern California’s Dolphins and Whales. Duration ranges from 2 to 2.5 hours.
Extended Whale Watching Expeditions
This is the ultimate experience offered! Set out on an expedition, where we will take you to Catalina Island and the offshore waters. The key benefit is the significantly increased chance of quality encounters with whales.
Never Crowded
Enjoy an open air, limited group size experience, and say no to getting on a boat with 50, 100, or even 150 other people. Newport Coastal Adventure was the first to offer small group Zodiac tours in Orange County, and we’ve built our reputation since 2014 on delivering quality over quantity.
Nobody Gets You Closer
The unique design of our ZODIACS allows for the closest distance to the ocean of any boat. Leaning over the air-filled cushions, playful dolphins are at your fingertips! This truly magical experience is what keeps our customers returning year after year.
Fast Boats
Our cruising speed of 25 miles per hour is twice as fast as the competition, which allows Newport Coastal Adventure to have its famously high success rate. Half the fun really is getting there, on a boat ride that’s never boring! Learn more about what makes these vessels special here.
Safety is Our Priority
There’s a reason we’ve decided to operate with the same boats used by the United States Coast Guard. And that’s because safety and ocean going capability is our priority above all else. Newport Coastal Adventure is the only small boat whale watching operator in Newport Beach issued Certificates of Inspection by the Coast Guard. Climb aboard with us on the safest small boat fleet, and don’t compromise with cheaper imitators.

Pristine Coastlines & Marine-Protected Reserves
The best part of our job is to introduce you to the whales, dolphins, and sea lions in their environment, close and personal! We hope that in your time with us we can make you feel connected to the animals as they go about their life in nature. We also don’t wish to exploit them for a show or treat them as disposable producers of income. Our waters are their homes and/or feeding grounds, which we want them to continue to thrive in in the most natural state possible.
