Dana Wharf Sportfishing and Whale Watching

Really enjoyed the dolphin watching - amazing! We wish we could have seen a whale, but will come back to try again in the future.

a great day had by us although did not see any whales did see plenty of dolph ins close up. crew very friendly a nice relaxing couple of hours.

The boat was very nice and clean, the crew members were very friendly and helpful. The food offered on board was good and was fairly priced. So often food is overpriced (movie theatres) when they have a captive audience, but NOTwith this company. When a whale was spotted, the skipper gave us information about it (the whale) and told us what direction to look, as well as what the whale might do next. Also gave us great information about the sea lions lounging on a buoy. We very much appreciated the discount price as we would not have been able to afford to take our family on this lovely trip at the regular price. This was a great deal!

The catamaran felt safe and yet we had quite a ride with the waves running about 4-6 feet. We didn't see any whales but quite a few dolphins.

We had rough seas and cold weather but captain and crew made sure everyone caught squid and had a great time. Awesome experience and a great value on the price.

great job, great info and very we;; done

Three generations of my family participated and all caught multiple fish. Crew was extremely helpful and provided special attention to kids with backlashes. Boat wasn't crowded and there was ample room to minimze tangles. Affordable, professional and clean. Professional filleting of fish was only $1 per fish. Healthy environment for families with children. 5 hours was plenty of time and the captain picked 3 good locations. Would definitely do it again! (Perhaps the all-day or Catalina)

My group went out expecting bottom fishing not knowing we we only going for barracuda. It was fast paced and became frustrating to our family group from Colorado. My rented reel did not work well. My recommendation would be for the type of fishing (bottom or other) be given at the time reservations are made. Customers need to check their rented equipment before getting on the boat.

We appreciated the efforts by the crew to find the whales especially when it looked like we wouldn't see any that day. The crew went further on the excursion than they normally would. Also, the guide gave lots of information on the ocean life we saw. Thanks for a great trip.

Did not see any whales.

These guys do know there stuff, as nature was tough to find but they tracked a blue whale and I was able to see the largest mammal with my girl. Then we saw 100's, yes hundreds of dolphins up close. What a way to spend 2 hours on the ocean.

We had a great time, our group ranged from 8 years old up to 60 years old. I almost wished it was longer since we were having such a good time. The crew was great, we saw blue whales, dolphins and sea lions. My kids had a blast, my husband had a blast and a bonus he could enjoy a beer on the boat. I would do this again!

Best whale watching trip ever.

Although the waves were quite high the trip was a once in a life time experince

This was our daughters first deep sea fishing experience. She didn't catch anything but just enjoyed being on the boat and fishing. Great crew and very good food! We will be back for another fishing trip for sure.
