| Disappointing that we only saw a couple of whales at the very end of the cruise, no dolphin. |

| Have been participating in Dana Wharf whale watches for 20+ years and always take visitors. Not too lucky seeing whales and/or dolphins/porpoises but always a nice 2 hours on the water.
Commentary is always good and helpful to "first timers". |

| I've been on other whale watching cruises and saw only dolphins and sea lions. This cruise was great as two whales were sighted and surfaced several times.
I would recommend anyone wishing to take pictures to have a high speed camera as you will have only seconds to point and shoot. The other option is to have a camcorder where you can catch the whale as it surfaces and clip photos from there.
An overall GREAT trip! |

| Enjoyed the trip tremendously. While rain threatened and it was chilly,the experience was great. It was the first Whale Watch for my wife and she really enjoyed it. The boat was clean, the crew was very courteous and knowledgeable. They made the effort to make sure that if Whales were to be found that we would get to see them. Nice Job! Definitely a return trip in the future. |

| Punctual, and clean and well organized.
Enjoyed the Dolphins and seallions.
But very dissapointed not to see any whales, I have done the trip in San Diego twice which is 4 hours long and saw whales on both occasions. |

| While we were not forunate enough to actually see any whales during our trip, it is an excellent way to see the beautiful coastline. Our group enjoyed tremendously watching the sea lions that were sunning on a bouy. As our trip was ending and we were all a little disappointed at not spotting a whale, several dolphin made their way by our boat for a little entertainment.
I would definitely recommend the experience. Do however dress in layers, we had several in our group that misjudged how much cooler the air would be out on the ocean. Might be a little long for small children, especially if the sightings are few. |

| We had a large group on a limited budget, so we wouldn't have been able to consider the trip without this special Tuesday discount pricing. We saw several whales and a family of dophins swam alongside the boat, but we would have been satisfied even with just the boat ride, which was refreshing and fun. Thanks Dana Wharf, and please consider more specials for locals like us! |
