Enjoyed the seals and otters - learned a lot about the birds, kelp and jellyfish - really a nice tour.

My favorite part of the tour was having a great naturalist, Aaron , who was able to inform us and enrich the exotic what we were seeing. I love birds so they were the stars of the show but my grandchildren loved the otters and the harbor seals
