Just a really awesome, well-oiled machine this whale watching company is. Highly recommend. Narrated by a well-learned, passionate marine biologist. I was impressed that though she may do this every day how her excitement was still palpable for all to see just as if it was her first day out seeing wildlife. We had a really great expedition out. Although just as it is with nature seeing this is wildlife so you’re never sure what you’re gonna get, but we were fortunate enough to have an amazing sighting experience. Gray whales & schools of dolphins were literally surrounding our vessel - amazing & delighting all of us onlookers with their acrobatics & super fun behaviors. I was impressed with the way our guides approached the sea life. With much respect and dignity. Always giving them the needed space. I learned so much this day & it was a highlight of my San Diego Trip. January & February being the biggest chances of seeing the gray whales so if your holiday schedule happens especially during these months, do not miss! (December to April is when the gray whales migrate down through from Alaska to Baja, Mexico) Worth every penny. Especially nice if you can find a really great deal on Groupon. So don’t forget to check this. Bottom line. Do it. See these great creatures in their natural habitat & how they really do life. Skip SeaWorld. That’s inhuman.
