Definitely enjoyed the cruise and experience. Had the opportunity to see 6 whales. I recommend the tour

Loved it! Took our kids and nephews today. The catamaran was fast and stable (the teen who typically gets seasick did fine with only a dramamine tab beforehand). Small but good snack/drink bar (some pre-packaged sandwiches, candy, granola bars). Very serious about COVID precautions from 6ft. distance while waiting in line to a stern talking-to by the captain about mask-wearing at all times prior to boarding. I appreciated this as some people take mask wearing less seriously. Masks are required at all times on the boat, indoors and out (except when eating). Boat was not crowded (slightly less than 100 people, normal capacity is 400). We saw SEVEN whales- it was awesome!

Thanks also for your comments on our COVID precautions. The safety and enjoyment of our passengers and crew is always our top priority and it's nice to hear that our enhanced efforts are working. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we hope to have you onboard again sometime in the future.

It was a great experience on a beautiful day. We saw plenty of whales and the guide made it easy for us to know where to look. I highly recommend this cruise.
