My family went on their first ever whale watch and it was amazing. My two small girls can not stop talking about the baby humpback whales. Great captain and crew.

Saw some spinner dolphins on the way out of the channel. Saw several whales along the route. Even saw a baby whale with her mother helping it along. We had a beautiful day for boating and the water was beautiful. The crew was amazing and made sure we were doing well. Plenty of water and snacks on board.

Great trip! Tons of whales out even just a few yards away from the boat. Excellent for family including small kids- though needed to bring our own well fitting life jackets for small kids.
