We did this back in April but were only able to see dolphins (but boy were there alot of them) and the trip was great. This time WOW!! We saw 8 or 9 whales. I couldn't keep up with the captains count and he was just as excited as all of us on board. Perfect day, perfect experience. Will definitely be doing it again.

A very nice clean boat, with friendly people working. Best part they tried and succeeded to find whales and we were able to get close to 2 blue whales! Great deal for the price.

Fun and Informative

Great cruise. When the captain would spot something he would circle around a few times giving everyone a chance to see and give information about the animals we saw. He would even answer questions anyone had. Though we didn't get to see any whales we did see a few different pods of dolphins including one pod with an albino dolphin. Everyone in our group had a great time.

No whales but still fun

If you want to get a seat, get there early (at least 45 mins). There is very limited seating available on the upper deck. Otherwise, be prepared to stand by the rail for 2 hours. The seating area below deck is very stuffy and will make you seasick even if you are not. Use the restroom before you leave shore. We saw lots and lots of beautiful common dolphins - that made the trip - no whales. The guide didn't have much to say but we didn't care. We paid half price on Tuesday night so it was worth it. We all had fun. Would do it again.

Enjoyed the ride

We didn't get to see whales, but we saw a pod of dolphins that you won't see in captivity. It was exciting and the ride on the ocean was fun. It's always a blessing to see the creatures that God designed with such perfection! Karen Berdinner

The whale was awesome!

About the time we should have turned back to return to the harbor a whale was spotted! Thank goodness the pilot let us watch the whale for a while. He moved the boat closer and even phoned a marine biologist to check on the whale's behavior. We had a great time.

Saw many dolphin and one huge whale
Tue, Aug 11  11:00 AM DMGossage Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
We were asked to keep our eyes open and yell out if we saw anything. There were many "sharp eyes". We were then taken to the area, and spotted a large number of dolphins. The dolphins entertained us by jumping in and out of the water and swimming along the catamaran. After spending a generous amount of time watching the dolphins, we were taken further out. Someone yelled out "whale" and everyone got excited. We saw a lot of splashing off in the distance, so the skipper sped out there. While I know that there is a schedule to be maintained, the skipper of the boat gave us a good amount of time to observe the action of the whale, and talked to us about baleen whales (which is what we saw). Due to the distance he had to travel to see the whale and the time given to observe it's actions, we returned a few minutes late. It was appreciated that instead of being rigid to time constraints, he allowed us the opportunity to follow the whale for a while, instead of rushing back.

Good time was had by all !

Weather was cool with a slite overcast, but burned off on the way home. The crowd had many school age kids for it was summer, but they were delightful. Boat was full, but we managed. Fishing started off very slow, then after many stops to find them biteing on our last stop on our way home. This made the whole trip worth wile. I'm going again soon. Tiny the Clown

Never go on "buy 1 get 1 free day" ! Too many ppl, can't even get a spot to fishing. Better go on some other days.

I have not gone fishing in ages, took my nephews, son and father (age 80) he and all of us had a ball! The staff was SO helpful and we definitely needed help!! The food was great and we felt that we been doing this for years!! We are already booking for Sept 2009 and it will be a BIGGER family affair!! it was worth every penny! Thanks for a Great Time and Great Fish!! Not a Mad Mom in a Minivan!

Very Nice Day of Fishing
Tue, Aug 11  6:30 AM djandj123 Male 30-39 Local Family With Children
Entire trip went perfectly. Boat left on time and arrived (unfortunately) on time. We could have stayed out all day. Great deckhands and very helpful all the way around. Only one gripe is that the captain did not call for rotation as often as he should have. (Back of the boat ALWAYS catches the most fish) We started on the starboard bow and caught a few fish for the first few hours. At the last stop the Cpt. calls for rotation. We get to the back of the boat and we caught 14 fish in the last hour of fishing. Captains, either call rotation more often or don't park just the back of the boat over the reef! (Yes it makes a big difference) Fishing is like real estate, Location , Location Location.

A Great Experience
Mon, Aug 10  1:00 PM Annereid Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We loved the whale watching cruise. We saw a huge pod of dolphins. They swam along side the boat for about 10 minutes. Then we saw an 80 foot blue whale. What a sight! The captain was great - gave us tons of educational information. The boat is sparkling clean. Couldn't have been happier.
