We always try to make one trip on the Cape May Whale Watcher when we go to Wildwood (they are in Cape May). The captain is personable and knowledgeable about the area and about the dolphins and whales. This trip, I wanted to see a whale. There have been many sightings over the last year and I was hoping to see one. First there were dolphins, maybe about 50 or so. Always beautiful. Then we were off to where the whales were seen in the morning. And there they were! Amazing. It is a wonderful experience and my family and I highly recommend it.

The entire crew were great! We saw at least 100 dolphins & a humpback whale! I would definitely go with this company for whale, dolphin, & sea turtle watches

We loved the overall experience of the Cape May Whale Watcher. The crew was very polite and courteous and the captain was very knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to see a humpback whale and tons of dolphins. The respect and reverence that captain and crew had for these magnificent creatures was not lost on us. Loved it!!
