Good Cruise no whales
Tue, Mar 18, 08   2:00 PM JSROBERTTHIB Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We enjoyed the cruise as it was a beautiful day. We were disappointed that we did not see any whales but we did see seals and dolphins. We feel we might have been better to take a morning cruise rather than the 2 p.m. cruise. The company was very generous in allowing people to stay on board for a second cruise to see if that cruise would see any whales. Earlier cruises that day saw whales.

No Whales
Tue, Mar 18, 08   2:00 PM mjrmunich Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
It was unfortunate that although we had spectacularly blue skies, plus an enthusiastic group of strangers who became friends on board, we saw not one wee bit of the many whales who we heard were traveling through the area. At the very end we saw a small school of playful dolphins who were fun & fast to watch but they were not the gray whales we'd been hoping to see. It was particularly upsetting that the people on the 12 noon cruise had seen whales and we had not AND that there was no offer of a ticket for another day, because, if you see at least dolphins, although this is a whale watching cruise, then it counts as having seen "something". It was nice to be outside on the water, but it was not what we paid for.

This was a fantastic trip. The boat was beautiful and comfortable and the crew was very professional and knowledgable. We saw 6 whales with the first one spotted within 5 minutes of leaving the dock. A great time was had by all!

It exceeded our expections
Tue, Mar 18, 08   12:00 PM bjwbrock Female 50-59 Combination Family Without Children
Our group consisted of my parents and my aunt, from San Antonio, TX, and I, I currently live in Mission Viejo, CA. We were hoping to see a whale. Were very excited because we saw several whales and I got a great picture of one whale tail flipping out of the water. We have raved to everyone.

We were with the group that had 4 whales in sight!
Tue, Mar 18, 08   10:00 AM Besrock Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
This was a last minute excursion for us, and are we glad we went!!! We had a group of 4 whales that we were along side of for about an hour. We had to leave them because our time was up!! The crew did a great job alerting us from above when the whales were going to surface, so we were able to get some great pictures/video! The crew seemed as excited as we were. We had a great time and will remember and recommend this experience. To top it off, our son filled out the raffle card and won 2 free return passes, so we will definitely be back or share this experience with someone else!

Saw 4 whales
Tue, Mar 18, 08   10:00 AM tiggergurl Female 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
Despite getting sea sick, it was a great trip in all. The boat had plenty of space to move around and left almost right on time. The crew was very helpful with pointing out where the whales were located and made it a point to say it was ok to throw up over the side of the boat. I was afraid to get sick because I didn't want to cause a disturbance but once they said it was ok I felt a lot better. I would recommend whale watching to everyone from this group. But we were lucky to see 4 whales that day.

Not so good...
Sun, Mar 16, 08   2:00 PM bishop95 Male 30-39 Local Family With Children
In their defense, they did warn us the waters were pretty rough before we went out. That being said, there was no heads up that with the rough waters and high winds came NO WHALES. I did get a chance to see about 5 people losing their lunch, but other than that it was a bust. We did get a Whale Check, good for a return visit anytime we want. We'll just make sure to check the forecast this time.

We love the whale watching experience and try to book a sea venture out at least once a month during the whale watching season. This last trip I was lucky enough to get a wonderful whale-tail shot and numerous shots of dancing dolphins. It was magnificient!

We enjoyed the ride, but it was very windy that day. We did not see any whales, but they gave us a rain check to come back again. We plan on going again in April, .

This is our 2nd year back Whale watching. The boat is a nice size and it is always clean. We did not see a Whale this time around. The Whale watching cruise offers a guarantee that if you do not see a whale, they will give you a rain check that will never expire. That is great customer service! The staff is always friendly.

Boat personnel were great, but the ocean was rough
Sat, Mar 15, 08   10:00 AM pam4man Female 50-59 Local Family With Children
The weather had been beautiful, up to the day we had scheduled our whale watching tour. A big storm was coming in, and the ocean was very rough. Several in our group got seasick, as did many others on the boat. We did not see any whales or dolphins. But the good news is that we were given a return trip ticket for free, which is good forever (as long as we don't lose it). We have been whale watching before, and had a wonderful time. Just our luck to get bad weather! We do plan to go again. The crew and employees were great, the boat was clean and roomy.
