Thrill of a life to see these precious humpback whales. Captain Joardan knew how to spot them and carefully navigate around them so we could get the best view without disturbing them. After being on a crowded cruise ship, our family was so happy to be on his 6-passenger boat at almost eye level with these creatures. He and his wife run a wonderful family business. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

The tour was a small group, our tour guide was so very friendly and worked hard to make this amazing experience as memorable as possibles. It was like whale watching with a friend.

What a great experience we had with Jordan. We saw humpback whales, sea otters, seals, porpoises, sea lions, bald eagles, and brown bear. Jordan grew up in the area and was able to answer a plethora of questions about the wildlife, fishing and the quaint town of Icy Straight Point. The tour was small enough to be personalized and even came with hot chocolate and snacks. Awesome!!
