The Monterrey Bay Eco Tour was a great wildlife tour, where we saw large rafts of otters, sea lions, harbor seals, along with all kinds of birds. Great guide , great ship, great day. Highly recommend!

Joey and Aaron took us out on an electric quiet catamaran. Thus eco. We saw seals, otters, sea lion snd many birds. They were extremely knowledgeable personable and interesting. We even talked about the brain health issues of the otters and their quirky behavior. Would highly recommend.
