Great Time -- Will Definitely Go Again!

We had family visiting and decided to take them out on this whale watch. It was a beautiful day and we so enjoyed the cruise. We only saw one whale but we saw literally hundreds of dolphins swimming so close to our boat that my just turned 2-year old could really see them. I would highly recommend this cruise!

Fun experience
Sun, Mar 30, 08   2:00 PM LinFishDU Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We saw about 5 grey whales, 2 on their own and then two adults with a baby. It was a little choppy which made it more difficult to see them, but it was still neat. The crew told us they didn't see any whales on the group that went out before us, probably due to the not-as-nice conditions. I would advise you to pick a nice calm day to go out, the crew seemed to indicate they have better success on those days. Take binoculars if you have them. The boat cannot get super close to the whales.

Crew: EXCELLENT

Fortunately we went out the day after the Superbowl and there were only nine anglers with two crewmen. Had lots of space to fish, the crew were the best, and the fishing was excellent. Had a great time. Didn't waste time where there were few fish and they found good spots. Thanks for a wonderful day.....

Best Harbor Cruise

The whale watching cruise was fantastic. We not only saw blue whales, but we also saw dolphins, shark, and a pilot whale. Ride was smooth. Had a great time!

sorta bummed

I loved the trip but I felt with the money we paid for the trip we could have gotten closer to the whales. we were wayyyyy back. There was a ship right on top of them and sometimes in front so sometimes we could not see and that ship did its best to get in front. I did gets some good pics but it upset us. I just felt the Capt could have tryed to get closer.

Wonderful Experience

The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable, the boat was clean and well maintained (especially the bathrooms which were spotless), and the experience was a total pleasure. We didn't see any whales, just a few dolphins and sea lions so everyone on the boat was given passes to come back for a free cruise. I would recommend this company to everybody I know.

Good Fun, first timers beware
Tue, Jun 17, 08   10:00 AM lhasney Female 30-39 Local Group of Friends
Although I've lived in Dana Point most of my life, I had never gone fishing before. Since we had some friends in from out of town, we thought it might be fun to go fishing. Positive: - Alcohol and food served in the galley - Clean boat - Boat goes to where the fish are biting - Fun times with so many people on the boat (lots going on) Negative: -Absolutely NO instruction for first timers -Lots of people on the boat (100) -Can't sit while fishing -1st 40 mins of trip is spent getting bait -Hard to maneuver around boat - especially with so many people on boat

Not bad, but not special either
Sat, Apr 4  10:00 AM LGDarling Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
It was a beautiful day and being out on a ship is always nice. Their boat was a nice boat, the tourist were the first to see the whale tale, not the crew. and that's all we saw...but it could have been a bad day to go too.

We got lucky!
Thu, Aug 7, 08   1:00 PM leopardldy Female 50-59 Local Other
I took my daughter-in-law on the trip for her 30th birthday. It was a perfect day weather-and-sea-wise and we saw hundreds of dolphins as well as one blue whale who kept appearing and disappearing throughout the whole trip. It was a fabulous adventure and we're so lucky to live here in South Orange County where we can do this type of thing, yet had never thought of doing it before. We'll definitely be back.

Great fishing

My group from Utah had a wonderful time and made some great memories. The fishing was great and the only negative comment was that the kids didn't see any dolphins. Otherwise everyone was very satisfied!!
