We had a great trip with both Dolphins and Whales. We saw many Dolphins and then the Captain received information that there were whales spotted out from NewPort. He immediately sped that direction and we were all rewarded with very good views of whales and surfacing of the whales. The Dolphin pod was very large and included many young ones. The crew were very nice and the Naturalist was very knowledgeable.

Seeing so many dolphins! Also, it was extremely peaceful. It was a great couple hours to escape the busyness of life.
