Ryan, our naturalist, was incredibly informative, educational, and fun. He provided a plethora of knowledge regarding the wildlife of the Pacific. Not only what we were fortunate enough to see but also their behaviors in the moment, evolution, history, human-animal interactions and safety, etc. Nelson was also on our boat walking around ensuring all the tourists were comfortable and safe throughout the entire excursion.
We were on the water for 3 hours and not a minute less. Our boat followed a pod of 3 beautiful gray whales and then one solo whale. We were also accompanied by pods of Pacific white-bellied dolphins, long beak common dolphins, short beak common dolphins, and a few sea lions...all of which we learned about through Ryan's commentary. Everyone on the boat had sufficient time to be able to see all the wildlife. I would recommend this opportunity to all who visit beautiful San Diego.
