| Our whale watching experience was fantastic. We didn't actually get to see whales but so much other sea life. The Risso Dolphins were amazing as they almost appeared to glow blue under the water! We had so much interaction with the dolphins. The entire staff was great as well. Friendly and so knowledgeable. We will definitely go again! |

Great ride, dolphins gave a good show

| The first day was very windy and water was choppy. We were given tickets for another cruise. I think this was more than fair!! Second time out was great. |

| Our ladies networking group meets monthly for dinner at local restaurants. We decided this time to do something different. The sunset harbor cruise made for a fun evening with the most gorgeous scenery in Southern California--and a great change of pace. The crew was great and rates were reasonable.
This boat has a fabulous layout for a party-boat. The pictures don't do it justice. It is more spacious than it appears and has great seating arrangements. You have to see the inside to realize what a great "floor plan" it has - which works out very well for a social event. Perfect for groups of 15-50. |

| We were told to be there at 5:30 but the boat never took off until 6:30 we could have come later. Everything else was okay |

| Great boat, clean and well appointed. A great, friendly and helpful crew.
Cruising the harbor was a complete bore, however. How many docked boats, and rocks with bird poop does anyone really want to experience?
For the price I'd rather have a drink and a burger @ Turk's and take a walk around
the harbor. |

| kids (5 and 7) loved it. They at least saw one whale (bigger than boat) and several hundred dolphins. Highlight of trip to California. |

| Wow, what a beautiful day aboard the OC Adventure! Calm seas and a beautiful power catamaran that took us out to sea where we were treated to close up views of dolphin - they come right over to the boat - and huge fin whales. Knowledgable crew, timely departure and return, and a nice clean boat made the trip just right! Would highly recommend this mid-week fun to do trip. |

| We took off on time but were out there nearly 2 hours before we finally saw 1 small humpback whale. It was exciting to see it but it was not what I expected. I rated the activity as Neutral because I don't know enough about whales to have expected something better at this time of the year. Maybe earlier in the year the whales are out more but one whale at the very end of the trip was a bit disappointing. The crew of 2 were not the friendliest either. We asked one (pink mohawk) if it was time and he kind of snapped at us. We're from Las Vegas. Whales are not something we see everyday. They need to take into consideration that although they see these beautiful animals everyday, there are people who have never seen one "Up Close and Personal" as your ad says. Our original plan was to go to Santa Barbara but with the fires we thought it best not to go into that area. I probably would not recommend this trip to my friends. Also when we came into the office to pickup our tickets we weren't greeted in a friendly manner. We felt as if we were more of a bother than customers. |
