You never know what to expect on these yours but 4/3/21 was MAGICAL!!! We saw 3 grey whales and at least 200 dolphins. Not your ordinary dolphins but ones that jumped for joy and showed off for us. Loved the drinks and popcorn! Don’t forget sweaters and dress warm. It’s chilly but worth every penny! Too bad they don’t allow video. Pictures don’t do it justice!

The whale watching trip was full of dolphins, jumping out of the water - it felt almost choreographed - should have had lots of music because it was like a dance that went on for many minutes all around the ship. We only got a glimpse of a fin whale. It was quite chilly so I recommend you bring very warm clothes.
