Just got back from the USS Iowa and whale watching! Amazing day!

I took my kids on the whale watching cruise and then we explored the USS Iowa. The kids loved spotting dolphins and seals! The cruise was about 2.5 hours, and the crew was super friendly. After that, we wandered around the battleship, which was really cool. It's perfect for anyone interested in history – I learned a ton! Highly recommend this combo if you're in LA.

Considering this as a gift for my dad's birthday!

My dad loves history and the ocean, so I think this would be a perfect gift. I’m just worried about the logistics though. How's the parking near San Pedro? Is it easy to get to?
