Fun Time

| My adult daughter & I were on a mini vacation & always wanted to go whale watching. This gave us an opportunity to be together and have fun even though we saw no whales. The dolphin pods were saw were beautiful, and the relationship the adults had with their young reminded us of our closeness and love. | ||||||

| The waters were very choppy so my son became seasick. I would have liked to see a more wide array of snacks served, only chips and warm soda was available. Maybe some hotdogs and cold drinks. We only saw dolphins and sea lions, unfortunately no whales....It was an OK trip no recommended for anyone that might get seasick... | ||||||

Fun Trip for the Money but crowded

| I took my 6 year old son on the half day trip. Overall we had a great bonding experience, and that is what matters. We went on the half day so it was only $19.50 each. Very reasonable. The boat was very crowded. If you go get there early and rush on to the boat so you can get a seat on the back. The crew was nice. We caught a few fish which was exciting for a 6 year old, but nothing big enough to keep.We only purchased 1 rod and reel with our tickets, but they gave us 2 which was neat to. My son had a hamburger on the boat for $5.50 so it was reasonable too.The strangest part was when we arrived to check in. It was a little confusing as to which line was the check in and which was for purchasing. So everyone was standing in line and the lady that worked there started literally yelling at everyone to back out the door and form a line. It was kind of strange because we had all just arrived and she was borderline manic. There was no need for it and just made everyone more confused. I think it kind of started the trip out in a somber mood for all the visitors. Most people are on vacation trying to enjoy themselves and the lady just started spazzing out. Anyways as for the parking we had no problem finding it. There were spots open everywhere. Overall fun for a dad and 6 year old, and the price was great. | ||||||

Best value for our summer vacation memories!

| This activity was not only the best value for a day trip, but was also the most memorable. We didn't get to see any whales, but the amount of dolphins we encountered was unreal! Our daughters(ages 5 and 8) were so excited. They were able to see the details in the dolphins faces and even named one "Flipper" since it kept doing flips in front of the boat. We LOVED it! | ||||||

| My great grandson (age 10) and I caught a lot of fish (although they were all too small to keep) and we had fun. It will be a day to be remembered by both of us. Good trip for a first timer. | ||||||

I would definitely recommend this trip

| Overall our family very much enjoyed our fishing trip. Everyone caught a fish and the kids had so much fun! The only thing I would change is maybe going on a day that is not so busy because I can't even count how much time my husband spent un-tangleing and redoing lines because the people are just too close together. Also there is not enough seating!! After a long week of vacationing and walking, the last thing we wanted to do was stand for 5 hours. The guys helping on the boat were over the top great with making sure that everyone had what they needed and were there most of the time when you needed help. We will definitely try another trip again in the future. Thanks! | ||||||

Father's Day Gift

| I thought this would be a great Father's Day present for my fiance. My daughter had a great time playing with the live bait and a little fishing. My fiance and I caught some fish and we all enjoyed the weather. | ||||||

A rather "generic" fishing trip.

| Sun, Jul 12 12:45 PM | jimjazz | Male | 50-59 | Combination | Family With Children | |
| The trip was scheduled out at 1245pm. We actually waited for a family of four AFTER departure! What' up with that? Crowded boat, went to some places where you just catch everyday fish. It was like fishing with a hook and line off the dock in Minnesota; you're guaranteed to catch a bunch but you wouldn't want any of them. I understand we're not "sportfishing" but we expected more. The Sunday special was affordable but I'm glad I didn't pay retail price! | ||||||

| I love fishing, and going to Dana Point is the best spot to do it. The crew is very nice, and the other fisherman on the boat are friendly and great to talk to. The only drawback is the price of beer, $3.50 for a can of coors light is a bit extreme. | ||||||

| The tour was great, though we didn't see any whales (can't blame them). However, we did see a ton of dolphins (two species), one of the groups was a megapod with hundreds in all directions. They were swimming with the boat and doing tricks without any fish or anything else from the boat. All natural. The naturalist was very informative and nice and the captain was great at spotting animals. The boat wasn't crowded and the length of the tour was not too long and not too short. The tickets were also moderately priced. | ||||||

| The captain and deck hands did a great job of taking care of us from start to finish. There was a wide variety of snacks and drinks available at reasonable prices. The deck hands were patient and very helpful throughout the afternoon. The live sardines were quite large and difficult to deal with. We did not get hardly any bites with that bait. Smaller sardines or maybe even anchovies would have helped us get more bites. We waited an extra hour to be first in line for the boat to get a good spot. Then we had to rotate around twice during the trip and lost our preferred spots. We would have preferred not to have to rotate since we waited extra to get our preferred spot on the rail. Overall we had a great time and would do it again. | ||||||

| As this was the first time we ever tried going on a fishing trip like this one, our experience were very good. The staff both in the shop and on the boat were great. Very helpful with everything. Unfortunately we didn't catch a lot of fish, but we still had a great time. | ||||||
