Although there weren’t any whales out, the tour was amazing! Seeing all the marine life and being educated about whales was amazing! Will be doing this again with family during the season whales are in town!

This is about my 10th whale/dolphin trip with Dana Wharf sport fishing. I really appreciate the gentle kindness of everyone who works there from the office to the boat to the naturalist. The scenery oh sure is beyond compare beautiful ocean waters and the equipment clean and safe. And we got to see two mega pods of dolphins. One was a common dolphin in the other bottlenose dolphin. One gentleman near me said he can’t decide if he’s more excited to see the dolphins or if he’s more excited at how excited I get about seeing the dolphins. It was a beautiful day! We had out-of-town guest from St. Louis who absolutely loved it as well. I highly recommend this trip if you’re coming to orange county California. Don’t miss it.
