I had high expectations having done whale watching in Alaska but this trip was sort of a let down mainly because we were so far from the whales. We sighted many of them during the trip but our boat was so far from them that they were mostly specks. I saw other boats much closer to the animals (I know by law they have to be at least 100 yards away) but for some reason, our captain chose to stay really far back. It was my niece's first whale watching experience and she was disappointed too. Thankfully, the captain took us far out into the ocean where we saw many Risso's dolphins up close. They swam right alongside our boat, which was cool. I wish we'd spent more time there, but we had to turn around to get back to the harbor in time. The staff were very friendly and the naturalist was excellent. We just needed to see the whales better. After all, it's a whale "watching" tour.

Hello,
We apologize that the whale tour did not meet your expectations. Our crew strives for excellence on each and every trip and want to give each passenger the best experience possible. Our Captain's do the best of their ability to get as close to the animals as possible while respecting the distance guidelines, based on ocean conditions and other vessels present, and by the behavior of the animals.
