We had a great Father’s Day and got to see 3 humpback whales and a lot of dolphins
Super informative, great that they partner with the Aquarium of the Pacific! Friendly staff! Lots of dolphins, mola mola, and whales.
The boat ride was comfortable and there's a lot of seatings for everyone. There's a snack bar and 2 restrooms on the boat.
Good cruise. Saw common dolphins. Bring a jacket to keep warm, sun block, and hold onto your hat!
Didn't see alot of whales - but we did see alot of dolphins - which was thrilling and made the excursion worth it.
great boat and crew. Saw whales and dolphins. Cheap. Not too many people. Beautiful.
Beautiful day, lucky to see several whales and dolphins. Everyone in our group of 8 had a great time except person with broken ankle using a scooter. They were nice in letting her board first but then wouldn't let her up on the deck even though we were told when we booked weeks earlier and were told she could. She had to sit inside the whole time so the rest of us alternated keeping her company.
We saw whales, 2 different types of porpoises and had amazing tour guides. It wasn't over crowded and the weather was perfect.
We were in Seal Beach for a long weekend to experience the west coast and discovered Harbor Breeze’s Whale tour on TripAdvisor. The price was within our budget for our CA vacation. And the boat was comfortable, just the right size for what Life 360 said was over 26 mile trip out into the ocean. Experienced 3 dolphin pods and 2 Niki whale sightings while on the roughly 2.5-3 hour trip. It was well worth the time and cost. The boat crew was helpful and the captain was very helpful in telling everyone where to look to see. We all highly recommend Harbor Breeze.
Amazing dolphin sightings -- three different pods, including some babies even! Lots of dolphins jumping our wake, too cool. Fantastic info from the guides on the boat. Price was more than fair, although boat was pretty crowded and free-for-all seating is kind of a pain. I'd pay extra to have assigned seating.
