Not My Cup of Tea

If you enjoy being herded onto a boat and taken to a point out along the coast to stare into dark, dismal water then this is the trip for you. The day I participated it was very cold, overcast and dreary. We rode out along the coast, which took about thirty minutes and watched for a whale to appear. We did see one, although very briefly. Everyone flocked to one side of the boat to see the elusive whale and I felt as though I were in a can of sardines. We headed back to shore afterward and I must say, I was happy to get off the boat. I vowed if I ever go whale watching again, it will be in Hawaii!

Great trip.

We were very fortunate to see a whale within 15 minutes of departure. Our captian followed him for about 45 minutes, so we all got to see it a dozen times as it surfaced for air. If we hadn't seen a whale on the trip, I would have been very dissapointed and probably not recomend the trip, although the scenery was beautiful.

Great way to see the coastline.

While we were not forunate enough to actually see any whales during our trip, it is an excellent way to see the beautiful coastline. Our group enjoyed tremendously watching the sea lions that were sunning on a bouy. As our trip was ending and we were all a little disappointed at not spotting a whale, several dolphin made their way by our boat for a little entertainment. I would definitely recommend the experience. Do however dress in layers, we had several in our group that misjudged how much cooler the air would be out on the ocean. Might be a little long for small children, especially if the sightings are few.

Our First Time Whale Watching!

It was a nice day for a boat ride , the ocean was as smooth as glass, and we did see a whale. We also saw dolphins so close to the boat! THE DANA PRIDE boat was very nice and the galley had an array of snacks and goodies. The crew was knowledgeable and helpful. We had a very nice time!

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.....

We saw 2 whales!!

We really enjoyed our cruise. We first saw sea lions on a buoy. Then one whale was spotted (by the crew), then a second one! Our captain followed these whales (as best as he could) for the rest of the cruise. It was great to actually see whales on a whale watching cruise. They, apparently, don't always find where the whales are hiding. I wished that I would have had a high-speed camera to capture pictures of the whales when they surfaced!

My friend Tera & I did the half day fishing on the Dana Pride Wednesday the same week. We loved it so much we blew off a wedding we were supposed to attend to spend the day fishing again on Saturday! We. LOVED. It!! Great crews on both boats - Dana Pride Wednesday, Oct. 1 & Sum Fun on Saturday, Oct. 4. She & I are beginner fisher girls & were REALLY worried about "getting in the way" - but the crew helped us out, fed us, kept the beers cold, & weren't bad to look at! : ) We will be back! Thank you!!

The staff was friendly open and honest. They warned us about the conditions and when we decided to go anyway they made the best of the situation for us.

This was my first time out fishing in the ocean. My son and I had a lot of fun and we caught a few fish. The crew was wonderful and so helpful with getting the fish off the hooks and dealing with tangled lines!!! The service was excellent!

I was disappointed in that the fishing was poor and I thought that at those spots where we encountered seals and sel lions that we ought to have moved, for my experience, althought it is alaska, tells me that when you are in the company of seals and sea lions, the fish are no where to be found. As a newcomer to your area, it would also have helped perhaps to give us an idea of where you were going to fish. You cant do much about those days when the fishing is poor, so take my thought with a grain of salt. Paul Costello Fairbanks
