My mom and I just went on this trip yesterday and it was fantastic! I have never seen whales and was anxious to see at least one, and we saw way more than that! I think it equaled to about 10 whales- a mix of blue whales and humpbacks, and it was incredible. We even had one breach right by the boat. At one point, there were 8 in the area we were in.
We also had the chance to see two different species of dolphins- which are my favorite animal- and they ended up swimming around the boat and riding the boat’s wake for an extended period of time.
The guide- Eric- and the captain (whose name i can’t remember) were excellent and knew exactly where to go to make sure we got a good experience, which we absolutely did!
I know we were pretty lucky with the amount of animals we saw- including some sea otters.
I would highly recommend this tour company! They didn’t completely jam pack the boat and everyone got the chance to see all the animals. We spent a considerable amount of time in each spot watching the animals.
One note- it can get cold on the water, bring layers!!
