Our whale watching trip was more than we could have ever imagined. The captain and the crew were friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable about the whales that we encountered. The whales breached several times and were so playful. It was an awesome experience from beginning to end.

Thank you for the kind review. So glad to hear we exceeded expectations! It is always great to hear about the amazing sightings we've had but we love to hear that our amazing staff and crew were a part of your positive experience. We hope to see you again in the future! Kind regards, Capt. Jim Douglass, Owner

Our group got to see three whales! First was Sedge, who had a damaged dorsal fin :( Then we went further and saw Jaberoo and her [third] calf! According to the staff, Jaberoo showed great trust in us by allowing her calf to get so close; they even swam right under the front of the boat! It was a great experience for all: families, couples, groups of friends, you name it! Tip: If you get seasick, or think you might, take some motion sickness pills! No fun for the crew to have to clean up on the boat deck. Also, all food, drinks, and souvenirs on the boat are cash only, so keep that in mind!

Great day with lots of sightings; informative crew and overall good experience. Only comment is why allow people to bring dogs along? There should also be an announcement regarding best locations to throw-up. There was a lady who didn't take kindly to the trip and spent most of the cruise leaning over the railing.
