The best. Whales checked us out. You could see their eyes! We vsaw a pod of dolphin. The boat was very smooth ride. The voat was clean and the people were nice. One thing I would recommend gloves because the railings need to be re-done and they have splinters.

Within moments of leaving the harbor, dozens, if not hundreds, of common dolphin surrounded the boat. Like a choreographed ballet, the dolphins swam and lept magically in simultaneous groups of three, eight, or more. They stayed with us the entire two hour tour. A majestic humpback shared several slow spouts, revealing the arch of its spine, before too many boats got too close, and it sounded spectacularly waving full fluke goodbye. Sheer beauty. Great group of crew and skipper.

My family and a friend’s family from Indian Wells had an excellent time seeing hundreds of dolphins swimming alongside the boat and also seeing some whales! The crew on this boat were fabulous, they were knowledgeable and so professional. The boat was at half capacity because of Covid restrictions and we all felt so safe. We’ll definitely do this trip again 💕
