The day we went, the water was pretty rough, so there wasn't as much to see. We did see about 5 fish.

Highly recommend especially if you have a child or family member that is nervous about being on a boat. We saw about a dozen different types of fish and thoroughly enjoyed the chit chat with the two crew members. It’s a quick trip and again, great for an introductory boat ride or if you have a child that is anxious about trying these types of things!

We went with a fairly large family group, ages 3 and up. The viewing was great! The captain knew exactly where to go for amazing viewing, and the guide had a great photo book for us to help identify a huge variety of fish! Id highly suggest this trip
