I highly recommend this to anyone who is a novice. The crew helps you with any issues and teaches technique. Caught my first fish! |

We were out of the harbor 15 minutes and saw Blue Whales for the balance of the 2 hours. Just great! |

We had a fantastic adventure watching the blue whales and dolphins. The skipper was great and so forthcoming with lots of facts about all of sealife we saw. The crew was very friendly as were the other people on the trip. There were so many blue whales we couldn't even count them all. What a treat for my daughter's 40th birthday!! |

My friend and I were overjoyed with the adventure. We saw much more than we expected - many, many blue whales in one area and then later hundreds of dolphins lined up on both sides of our catamaran making sort of v on both sides of the boat - some leading, some following and some criss-crossing and jumping in front of us. They were having as much or more fun than we were. DON'T MISS IT - IT WAS AN ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME I'LL NEVER FORGET!!! I'm so glad I finally took the time to go and enjoy |

The boat ride was so delightful, we would have been happy without even seeing whales. But wow did we ever see whales! Up close and personal as they circled the boat and performed in front of us. The guide was terrific and enthusiastic about finding whales. The entire boat cheered him. We will definitely go again! |

We were able to see two blue whales and a sea lion and even ride with the dolphins!! It was amazing, we are so glad we went and are planning a whole or half day trip next time we are in town. |

Awful time, terrible service, overcrowded, no fish

This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. They allowed way too many people onto the boat and lines were getting crossed left and right. We spent more time untangling lines than fishing. It was clear they are more concerned with making money that allowing the customer to have an enjoyable time. If you want to fish and enjoy yourself DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! |

Awful, Awful deep sea fishing

A group of friends and I went out on a Friday night twilight trip. That was a mistake because the boat was way too crowded. Of the 60 spots available for fishing 59 were taking up. Lines were getting crossed all the time, and the fanfare on the boat was a sight. Of the five of us in our group, we only caught two fish between us. I've been deep sea fishing many times before and never had such a horrible experience. Between the non-existing fish, the unfriendly crew, and the revelry on the overcrowded boat, I will never, ever return or recommend this trip. |

It was very nice. We saw lots of dolphins and at the very end of the outward trip, 2 blue whales.
We only saw the backs of them and their water spouts, not all the way up out of the water, but it was still good. The captain actually stayed out a few minutes longer waiting for them to resurface so that we could see them. This was much appreciated.
Boat was clean and comfortable. The only bad thing was when the skipper played music loud (he said his boss made him). It was much nicer when he turned it way down and even off. |

We had a fabulous time. the Catamaran was a smooth ride. we saw schools of dolphin and some sealions, and saw a blue whale. It was so cool. The captain did a great trip. He went out farther to make sure we saw a whale. Fun was had by all. I would do this trip again. |

I took my cousins from TN on their first whale watching trip (mine too) and we were delighted to see a large group of common dolphin and a Blue Whale. The ocean was calm and the weather was perfect. The boat was comfortable and the crew was very pleasant. Dana Point is a beautiful place to go. We topped off the day with a great lunch overlooking the harbor at one of the local restaurants. |
