About

Before savoring your next bite of sushi, see where some of it comes from by watching our stunning HD footage of the premier bluefin tuna farming operation on the West Coast!

Our San Diego video production team traveled 90 miles south to Ensenada, where we sailed out to a sustainable offshore aquafarm.

Our San Diego video crew captured great shots of the highly prized Pacific bluefin tuna, which have been wild-caught and raised in giant holding pens for up to 3 1/2 years.

Amazingly, divers in the pens grab the giant fish and transfer them to a boat for harvest and, later, export to the U.S. or Japan. We also shot aerials of both aquafarms, in Salsipuedes Bay and near Islas Coronados.
