This tour was a lovely morning on the water. Captain Keith was very friendly and knowledgeable. We saw a few dolphins, an albatross nest with babies, and many birds. The shelling was good but nothing special. Overall a pleasant morning but we didn’t see anything particularly impressive.

Sorry that you were disappointed. Wildlife is just that ... wild... sometimes they are not cooperative.

Captain Ed was very knowledgeable! Great day, didn’t feel rushed! Went out with only two other people and they didn’t cancel.

Captain Thomas Schmidt was fun and knowledgeable. We saw four dolphins hanging out with the baby girl swimming close to the boat to check us out. Also had time for a bit of shelling as well. Highly recommend this private, personal experience
