LA Waterfront Cruises is now open for daily whale watching cruises and harbor tours

LA Waterfront Cruises has been closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak and adhering to the guidelines provided by the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, State and City officials.

LA Waterfront Cruises crew has been maintaining the fleet, both mechanically and sanitarily, at all areas of our vessels and facilities in which passengers and crew come into contact. Some of the measures we have implemented include:

• Disinfectant solution will be available on vessel for public use.
• Passengers will be required to wear face covering, as per Los Angeles County guidelines.
• Crew is required to wear face masks and will be provided with non-medical grade covering.
• Crew is required to wash their hands at least every 30 minutes.
• Crew is required to submit temperature checks before the start of every shift.
• Loading will be executed by using space marks, to allow for distancing between guests, thus avoiding crowded lines.
• All indoor areas will have door air circulation to allow air flow, by means of open doors and windows.
• Vessel capacities have been adjusted to avoid large gatherings and to provide social distancing.
• Only packaged snacks and drinks will be served on board.
• Soap, air dryers, and disposable towels available on vessels.
• Guided passenger flow on the vessel to avoid crowds.
• Indoor areas will be monitored to limit the amount of people that can be inside at any one time.

Additionally, all employees have been given guidelines from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention which include; wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing, If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

We have been taking employees' temperatures daily before reporting to work. Employees that are ill or displaying signs of illness (fever, cough) do not report to work. Employees have been practicing social distancing and wear masks and gloves. Additional measures will be implemented as directed by our city and state leaders as we all safely return to normal.
