| I would describe this as a nice boat ride in the ocean. People expecting to get a clear view of a whale may be disappointed. Go with an open mind and with some luck you might see one or two from a distance. However its cool to see a number of dolphins and sea lions in the open ocean. Overall, its a fun acitivty. Go prepared with some warm clothing and binoculars for better viewing. The staff on the boat help to keep the trip lively and interesting. |

| We had a great time and they tried to find the whales. They even offered a longer trip when they found out where some whales were, but there were people on board that had to be back at 5:00. They gave us all rainchecks to come back for another trip. |

| There were too many people on the boat and several families brought on large strollers which took up even more room. Occasionally the captain would get on the microphone but it was so staticy, we could not understand him and to top it off not only did we not see any whales, we did not see any dolphins either.
We did however see a group of seals and in the end they returned our tickets to us but the problem was I had gone with a friend from out of town so she will never be able to use that returned ticket. |

| We saw no whales nor dolphins. We found out there were 5 whales but it was to far to go there. Dolphins garanteed, it was not the case. It is life, we did not get lucky that day. I know they are wild animals and understand that we cannot admire them all the time. It is not your fault. We got 2 ticktes to get back another day, which we will do soon for sure. I hope to see them ! I am crossing my fingers. |

| Everyone on board will enjoy this voyage. The crew was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They took us straight to the whales and respectfully followed them for a while assuring that we all got that once in a lifetime picture of the flukes (tail) coming out of the water. It was a wonderful family experience. |

| Whale watching was a little disappointing, as the whales we saw were far away, but we did see a whale rolling over, a fin in the air, and many spouts of water. However, the 20-30 dolphins we saw swimming next to the boat made it worth it!! |

Wonderful!!!!

| My husband and myself were very much thrilled with whole experience. We had previously gone out of San Pedro and Newport Beach. Although the drive from Placentia was farther the overall experience was super!!! We found that the boat was clean and maintained, the staff friendly and very informative when it came to the whole experience. We did not feel crowded into a small space to observe the whales and dolphins. I would actually recommend this Whale Watching Cruise to all my friends. Thanks for the wonderful time on the sea!!!! |
