THE TRIP

One boat, one spot, one price.

Every Monday from June 22 to September 28, the Spectre leaves Ventura at 9 AM and runs you out to Anacapa or Santa Cruz — captain’s call based on conditions. We drop anchor over kelp forests and have guides in the water with you for two long snorkel sessions.

BBQ lunch is served between sessions — tri tip, chicken, or veggie burger. Back at the harbor around four, weather depending. One trip, one price.
