Magical Trip!

The whale watching trip was wonderful! We had the chance to view 4 blue whales in a relatively close distance from the boat. The boat and guides were very knowledgable and friendly. Everybody on board appeared to be having a wonderful time. I would recommend this experience to anyone/everyone!!!! Great fun for all ages.

I loved it, Morgan the Marine Biologist, the Catamaran, I was able to relax, I even took my shoes off. Everyone was respectful, helpful and polite. I did not want to come back to shore. Thank you to all the employees for making it so wonderful. I had to hold back tears when the dolphins were right at the front of the Catamaran riding along with us. It was a dream, that I always wanted to experience.

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.

I had a really good time. We didn't see any whales but it was past the time of migration so to be expected. We saw sea lions up close, and tons of common dolphins, some bottle nose dolphins, and a lot of birds diving into the water. It was more than I expected, the dolphins were swimming so close to the boat and jumping out of the water. It was a lot of fun and worth the price (a lot cheaper than other places in the area).

Fantastic Day!

This is the third whale watching trip I've taken and the best I've been on. The longer trip (4 hours) meant we could go further out (and South) than we could have on a shorter trip. The group was a lot smaller than on the whale-watching boats and the structure of the catamaran means there are many great spots to watch from. The crew was friendly and the naturalist was knowledgable and enthusiastic. I enjoyed it so much that I'll be going back this summer for a blue whale experience!

Unfortunately, on the whale watching trip, there were no whales sighted. It was disappointing but the crew was fantastic. Upbeat attitudes, good knowledge and always checking to make sure the passengers were ok.

very rough waters

I think it might have been too rough to go out the day I went out. I threw up twice as did a couple of other people, this is AFTER taking dramamine, so it was really rough - several people fell down because the water was so choppy. I saw several dolphin, but not what I was expecting exactly. No whales in sight. The staff was extremely nice and friendly though and I enjoyed talking with them.

The boat was great - big, clean, bathrooms were handy and the food/drink area was easy to get to. There was plenty of shaded area inside with a full view. No matter where you were on the boat, you had a full view. The crew was incredibly nice and helpful. We didn't see any whales, but did run into a pod of about a thousand dolphins, and we spent, I think, about half an hour running with them. They were everywhere - as far as you could see, and right next to the boat so you could see them clearly. Once in a while one would jump way out of the water and do a big flip, and you'd hear a big oooooh! from the people on the side of the boat that saw it. That was an amazing experience, so incredible you have to see it to believe it! The only problem I had (and I expect this to be remedied soon) was that even though online it said there was a bar, they didn't have their liquor license yet, and the food was limited to chips and candy. But, like I said, it was a new boat and I think they'll probably take care of that. There were only 15 sightseers on the boat, and they were all really nice, so even though I was alone, I didn't feel out of place. I have family coming soon and will definitely put this outing on our schedule.
