Captain had a bunch of rookies on board including his son who took the best spots on the boat.....paying for such a service should produce professional results.

Not too satisfied
Tue, Apr 22, 08   2:00 PM bethplatt Female 50-59 Unspecified Unspecified
The trip was supposed to be a 2 hour trip. The boat was late coming in because the group before us found dolphins. That was understandable. But as a result, we were only out for 1 1/2 hours instead of 2. And we didn't get to see whales or dolphins! I understand that these things are unpredictable, but it would have been nice to get the full 2 hour opportunity to find these marine mammals! The boat could have used a few more places to sit comfortably. I was with my 80 year old aunt and she was a little uncomfortable. It was a beautiful day and the boat was really steady.

Great adventure to take teenage girls on

I took two teenage nieces (15 & 17) visiting from MI on this Whale Watching adventure. They absolutely loved being on a boat in the harbor and seeing the dolphins so close they could almost touch them. We were all delighted to see the whales, especially the mother and calf. A seal popped his head out of wave quite unexpectedly and gave us all a good chuckle. My nieces were quite excited by this activity and besides enjoying it myself, it heightened the experience to be able to share it with my nieces. The crew was very friendly, polite, and knowledgable.

We saw several whales and a pod of Dolphins. The boat was comfortable and not over-crowded. It was a great deal for the price.

Beautiful day - perfect weather - saw incredible pod of Dolphins (per Captain over 2000) - dolphins thrilled my 8-year old Grandson - saw Seal Lions, Sharks & Seals but no Whales. Crew members provided detailed responses to questions asked.

It was awesome!

The weather was gorgeous, the trip was awesome. Unfortunately we did not see the whales, but it was worth to go on the trip anyway. We were blessed to see a big pod of dolphins, a sunfish, and family of seals. Thank you very much for unforgettable experience. Nadia and Michael.

Very nice experience...

OK, all we saw were two sea lions and no whales or dolphins, but that wasn't anybody's fault. Plus we got a pass to go out again for free. The captain and crew of our boat were great. The captain tried several different areas and kept us informed. He was very personable and genuinely sorry we didn't see a whale (although we did see a couple "spouts"). The boat was clean and the galley had reasonable prices.

Didn't see whales
Thu, Mar 6, 08   10:00 AM pennydouglas Female 60-69 Local Unspecified
I was excited about going out to view any type of whales and unfortunately not one whale to be seen. The captain said he was sorry and the whales must have been in Mexico and haven't made the trip back. What we did see was dolphines in herds swimming very fast and came very close to the boat. But that was it. I was disappointed because I've been wanting to do this a for a very long time. The captain said he would give us our tickets back if we didn't see any whales, but that didn't happen. Penny Douglas

No whales, but dolphins galore

The ship left about on time, the weather was good, the boat captain and everyone were friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. We didn't see any whales, but we had a great time as the dolphins frolicked with the boat. Great trip.

Call it a dolphin-watching cruise; then, people won't feel let down when there are no whales and excited when there are.

Fun to do once in your life
Sat, Mar 1, 08   11:00 AM kjc4674 Female 40-49 Unspecified Unspecified
Though the weather was cold and windy, we did see one whale (they don't travel in pods, so it's really amazing that we even saw one, given the size of the ocean!). We also saw several small seals playing together, and 2 big sea lions in the harbor. There were approximately 40-50 people on the boat, and there was plenty of room. The crew were nice and informative. This is one of those things you should experience once in your life to say you've done it.

Had a great time.

On our first trip out it was very windy and we saw absolutely nothing. But Dana Wharf whale watching gave us vouchers good for a year. We returned the next day to beautiful weather and we saw two whales and watched them for about 30 minutes. On our way back we found a huge pod of dolphins (over 100) and they were spectacular. Great trip and very informative.
