We did see whales and the captain of the boat seemed very knowledgeable as to where they might be. However, the boat construct was not very conducive to seeing the whales unless you were willing to stand up front for 3 hours or get on boat first and get to sit is forward facing seats--there were only 6 passengers allowed up top, and there was no one willing to come down. Therefore, you had to sit in a side seat--not very comfortable--or along the side of boat to see anything. The assistant was very good and helpful.

Great whale watching experience with Lena and Rory! We were able to see a mama and baby that breached at the same time! Beautiful!! We also saw another single whale on the trip back in. Additionally, we saw multiple sea turtles, pods of dolphins, and a huge tiger shark!!! It was an amazing experience!! When we got close to the whales, they turned the boat off and just let us watch for a long time! So peaceful and beautiful to be with nature up close!! Other whale watching boats only drive by slowly, the whales don’t show their beautiful with the roar of the boat like that! Rory was also very knowledgeable about the whales, which was great!!

Saw a mother with baby! Very cool. There was also a male escort. Amazing to see how protective the mother was. Guide was great explaining the migration patterns and reproduction.
