Awesome experience! We were able to see 4 whales on this 4 hour trip. 3 Humpbacks and 1 Minke. One of the Humpbacks was literally 20 yards out less away from the boat. We saw it come up go under the boat and resurface than dive. It was such an awesome experience. There are college interns that are on the boat and they came around showing the baleen off a Humpback and explained it as well as letting us feel it. It was such a great experience.

The sunset watch was honestly the most beautiful time of day for this event and our family completely enjoyed! Highly recommend Cape Ann to anyone! Staff was so friendly and informative and shared information (ex facts about whale teeth) that was interesting to everyone. Thanks so much Cape Ann for a fantastic evening!

Our family had a fantastic day at sea with the Cape Ann crew! We saw four different humpback whales and were able to see them swim around, spout, dive showing their tail fins and even a side wave with a flipper. It was a beautiful day off the coast of Gloucester!
