Captain Nick was amazing this was the best part of my trip with my family. Thank you so much for this experience!! No whales, but we saw sooo many dolphins and sea lions!!

We had a wonderful time! Captain Nick is both welcoming and knowledgeable and the speed of the small boat alone made the trip fun. We enjoyed a large pod of dolphins dance under and around our boat. And one even did belly-up jumps through our wake! As it turned out we didn’t actually see any whales, but had a great time all the same.

Enjoyed a few hours out with 2 teens. The girls had a blast! No whales that day, but hundreds of dolphins, including many babies and many other critters…seals, sea lions, etc! Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. We would absolutely do it again!
