Captain Dan, you are an incredible tour guide. Very informative and fun. An evening we will never forget. If we could give you a million stars we would. Thank you for the best evening sunset tour. We saw hundreds of dolphins, a blue whale, and sea lions. We highly recommend this company because of the boat size and personalized service. Don’t go with a large closed boat that doesn’t have the speed to get you to the whales quickly.

Easy to find the meeting spot. Capt. Nick was delightful and very knowledgeable. Shared all kinds of information about the whales, feeding habits, and migration. Knew where to take us to see the dolphins. Our trip was amazing to say the least! We were lucky to be able to see 2 types of whales, a lot of dolphins, and the sea lions. Capt. Nick’s enthusiasm for the ocean and the sea life was appreciated as it made our excursion that much more exciting!
