This is a wonderful experience! No matter if it’s your first time, second, third or multiple, it never disappoints. Don’t miss out on this fabulous tour!!!
We checked in at 11am for a 12pm departure but they never started boarding until 12pm and we left around 1pm. The tour was to be 2.5 hours but we were back in the dock by 3pm. The actual site seeing was only 45 minutes. We did see whales, dolphins and sea lions. They also overbooked and no available seating for some.
It was good, only we couldn't see any whales! Definitely, but anyway, the trip was good! It was good, except we didn't get to see any whales! Definitely, but anyway, the trip was good!
Relaxing, educational and exciting. Saw more than one whale with multiple breaches. Do not miss this experience.
The process was easy. I recommend arriving a few hours before to navigate the parking situation if you have a later departure time. The crew did an excellent job navigating the waters and Angie was very informative and impressive with her narration. We saw a cow/calf pair of humpbacks that put on a show for our birthdays. Thank you again!
My experience was amazing. I had a little hiccup in time. They were able to accommodate me that mission was very reason The length of the visit was amazing. It was perfect. It was just enough. The atmosphere was amazing. We had so much fun. I brought my whole family. The crowd was just enough. The crowd house was just enough. Overall, my trip was amazing. I met some great people on the boat as well. I had fun. This will be a great experience for a family, a couple and somebody that solo honestly the whales, the dolphins the sea lions. It was so amazing just to see them in their natural habitat so amazing. I love it. I will definitely do it again.
It's beautiful and life changing. You will experience so much joy. The whales gave us quite a show. Beautiful crew and the narrator was well experienced
This experience was the best interesting exited some day I had to take this trip again thank you so much
Nice boat trip but without further ado. We only saw animals that sit daily in the passed places. We saw some sea lions in the distance, some seals on the rocks and some dolphins. Unfortunately, no whales. On the boat they told us that it is normal that we didn't see whales because the warm water makes them look for other places. Too bad they keep selling the boat trip as a whale tour, when they know there are none. The seats on the boat are not comfortable.
Wonderful 2 1/2 hours but we didn’t see any whales. We saw a large pod of common dolphins, (some with very small babies), sea lions and harbor seals. A bit disappointing but all in all a great trip!
