Review & FAQ:

The Lil’ Toot Water Taxi is a popular family attraction which operates from Stearns Wharf. You can take the whole family to enjoy an inexpensive fun ride on the Lil’ Toot taxi which offers 15-minute narrated boat rides as well as their popular Sunset Boat Rides which operated between Stearns Wharf and Santa Barbara Harbor. You can also consider hosting a fabulous nautical birthday party on the taxi - children will have a great time watching the bubbles rise from the smoke stack and enjoying a chance to steer Lil’ Toot under the watchful eye of Captain Fred. The birthday child will receive a Lil’ Toot sailor cap to remind them of their fun day at sea.
