On the day we took this tour the ocean was a little rough and windy. We stopped three times and watched dolphins. We saw no whales on our trip that day. The boat was very nice.

I see that you visited our business last week. We appreciate your conveying thoughts with fellow consumers who hopefully might be our future satisfied customers as well. As you probably realize, consumer reviews are the number one determinant for influencing other consumers. Thanks and thanks again for your patronage.

First of all, I titled this “Incredible!” and we didn’t even see a single whale! :) Last week, my husband and I took our 10-year old twins on this excursion. It included a plush whale and a children’s book. The boat was very clean & comfortable. While we didn’t visit the bar area, it was announced that you could purchase many beverages (including alcohol) and packaged foods as well as pizza and other prepared items. Our children were just excited to be on a boat in the Pacific. Our captain was relentlessly searching for animals and, finally, on our way back, he spotted dolphins. What a sight!

This was a great excursion! Nice big boat, not overly crowded, helpful captain and naturalist. Unfortunately we didn't see any whales (not really the season for it) but TONS of dolphins swimming alongside the boat. Really enjoyable 2 hours!
