The Amazing Glass-Bottomed Boat In Northern California Will Bring Out The Adventurer In You

Want to experience the ocean in a whole new way? The Little Mermaid Glass Bottom Boat in Monterey is the perfect way to see some ocean life while staying dry. And while Monterey is a little down south for those who live farther up north in the state, the awesomeness of the experience makes it totally worth mentioning.

The glass bottom allows you to see ocean life up close without getting wet.

Through the glass bottom, you'll catch glimpses of jellyfish, seaweed, and other ocean life that you normally wouldn't be able to see up close unless you were snorkeling or scuba-diving. This way, you stay conveniently dry while still being able to take pictures of marine life.
You'll see adorable animals.

While you won't see them through the glass bottom of the boat, sea lions and otters are some of the highlights of the trip. Snap some photos of these adorable creatures swimming in the water.
You'll probably see a whole crew of them!

It's cuteness multiplied when you see this many adorable animals sunning themselves on the rocks. Don't they look like they're enjoying themselves?
The ride isn't too long.
Ron V./Yelp
Those worried about seasickness from being in a rocking boat too long needn't fear. The ride is only about 30 minutes long. If you're still unsure, the short length of the trip means you can wait ashore, and the rest of your travel group will be back in no time at all.
As you float around the bay, the captain of the ship will point out what you're seeing and fill you in on some fun facts. Having a knowledgeable tour guide makes for an even more memorable experience.

You'll learn a lot about Cannery Row.
Ron V./Yelp
The historic Cannery Row has given birth to many incredible stories over the years. You'll hear all about them from the captain as you coast through the water.
It's a different way of experiencing the coast.

If kayaking, sailing, or swimming aren't your thing, this glass-bottomed boat is a fun and interesting way of experiencing the ocean.
