Wow!!! Beyond excellent day!! I highly recommend this whale watching company. Less crowded and fulfilled every point on what was expected. Danny was an excellent captain, turning some choppy water and swells into a pleasure ride, as well as, finding the hot spots for seeing all types of marine life. He found the dolphins and whales before other more popular boats, got us there quickly, and respectfully navigated their movements to avoid stressing them out. It was incredible! Amanda, our “marine life guru,” kept us informed on everything we saw, encouraging the younger crowd to join in on this educational experience. We were so lucky to have this amazing twosome, along with Marissa, to make this an unforgettable experience! As one of our young whale watchers called it, we had the best “whale Wednesday” ever, thanks to Discovery Whalewatch! Skip the lines and choose this company. They are family friendly, for young and elderly, and know how to make your day special. Wouldn’t let me leave a picture of one of many tail flukes, but they were incredible!

My family had a great time exploring the ocean for sea life. Eric was very informative and patient. I felt a little sea sick and the crew member was caring and concerned about my health. I would definitely book my next tour with Discovery Whale Watch.

Great day with Capt Ron and Eric. We saw a few whales and a couple types of dolphin. So worth it to see whales up close and in their natural habitat. Clean, safe and roomy craft. Definitely recommend this tour!
