This was a great tour overall. Saw a ton of dalphins and one whale spout. 2 hours was enough imo and great views of the coast. My 8 year old, and wife, loved it!!

My family and I really enjoyed the excursion. We were nervous at first because it was so cold out on the water, but the views were beautiful and we were quickly distracted by the amount of sea life we got to see. We saw at least a dozen dolphins (two types) and two whales. The staff does a great job at keeping the boat at an angle that allows maximum viewing while not disturbing the animals. I didn't personally eat the food but my kids said their burger and hot dog were good. Overall we had a great time.
