There's nothing quite like standing on the deck of a boat, heading out for a day on the water. Whether you want to hook a fish, pull up a pot of crabs, or get up close with whales and other sea life, several companies offer a variety of seagoing adventures on Sonoma County's Pacific Ocean coastline, as well as several inland waterway options.
