Our group of 8 from Georgia went whale watching with Captain Jesse and had a super time! We met on the dock in Ketchikan at 9:00 am, and loaded up. Right off the bat, when we met Jesse, you could tell we were in for a fun time! He was so enthusiastic and friendly!
The weather was cool and slightly misty as we headed out, just as you would expect on an early October Alaska morning. You can watch from anywhere on the boat, inside in the warmth, or even sit next to Jesse as he drove. Refreshments were provided free, or we were told we could bring our own food. We saw many humpbacks and watched intently as they surfaced and flipped their huge tails in the air. We also saw bald eagles, otters, and other animals. If it wasn’t for the short window of time we were scheduled to be at the port, we would have loved to have spent more time with Jesse as he shared his vast ocean and wildlife experiences with us! All I can say is, go on the trip with Eagle One. It’ll be the highlight of your vacation!!!!
