NOT worth the price
|
|||||
| Sat, Mar 1, 08 10:00 AM | Zorayda | Female | 30-39 | Local | Couple on a Date | |
| I read other reviews and hoped our luck to be different but honest truth is that this was not worth the price. The boat ride was nice but all we saw were two small whale tails. We didn't see and dolphins either. It's like we just paid for the boat ride. The folks inside the shop are not too welcoming either. I think it's due to the fact that they are busy and there are several things going on in the shop. The gal asked me for proof of my purchased tickets, I showed it to her and she took it from my hand without asking me if I need anything from the pages attached (I printed festival info, etc.). She handed me two tickets and pointed to the side saying "dock number 1". She did not make eye contact and never smiled or said hello. | ||||||

Weather wasn't good, so half off offer offered

| My son and I decided to go fishing, we decided to go to DanaPoint. The weather didn't cooperate, but the captain was trying his best to give the patroons a good trip, but decided it would be better to come in earlier. The company offered a half off offer on another trip. Since the weather is a very influential part on a sea trip, this was a very good and fair choice. The next time, I want to go on a trip like this, I definately will keep them in mind. | ||||||

Weekday Fishing
|
|||||
| Tue, Jul 8, 08 6:30 AM | zeisjr | Male | 50-59 | Local | Family With Children | |
| I brought my 13 year old son with me and we really had a great time, the crew was very helpful and always ready to lend a hand if lines got tangled and always there when a fish was landed to put it in the proper gunny sack. They even quickly re-rigged my son's line when it needed to be cut due to major tangles. I would highly reccomend Dana Wharf for day fishing. | ||||||

Experiance of a Life Time
|

| The guys were awesome, I had bought the last 8:00am ticket online, buy needed another ticket for my partner unfortunitly it was all sold out. To keep the story short, I call and speak with Chris and he told me to bring my partner with me on the day of the trip in case there was an opening. So we showed up, they had done a great job adding my partner to the 8am trip with no hassle. To top it off we had a wonderful experiance eventhough we didn't see the whale(s) until the last 15 min. of our trip. We definitly do business with them again. | ||||||

| Everybody was very friendly. The trip was casual and fun. The staff felt like they were apart of the group rather than staff working for a paycheck. I am planning to bring my brother and his kids next time during the summer. | ||||||

Sum Fun NOT ANY FUN
|
|||||
| Tue, Jun 30 6:30 AM | zapata007 | Male | 40-49 | Local | Individual | |
| Went on the 1/2 day fishing boat Sum Fun. There must have been 40 anglers and only 5 fish caught. The skipper did not put us on any fish. We fished the same kelp bed twice. I would not recommend this fishing outfit. | ||||||

Crew makes a poor fishing day OK
|
|||||
| Wed, Apr 30, 08 10:00 AM | zapata007 | Male | 40-49 | Local | Individual | |
| The day was drizzling and overcast. The ocean seemed a little choppy. The captain and the crew picked to good spots for us to cast our lines. Most of the anglers were getting several bites. Most of the fish were too small to keep. However, most of the bites were calico and sand bass. The crew was very helpful. A handful of us were not very good at fishing but the crew was good at helping anglers who blew out the reels or tangled their lines. All in all it was a good day. | ||||||

Great Deal
|

| Tue, Jun 2 5:00 PM | Zaika90210 | Female | 20-29 | Combination | Family Without Children | |
| I decided to take my mom, and my visiting aunt and grandma from Russia on this evening whale watching boat ride. It was a fabulous deal, for $14.50 (which is a Tuesday half price special) we got to witness a beautiful ocean for 2 hrs. We didn't get to see the whales unfortunately, but we saw a family of dolphins playing around with the boat as well a group of sea-lions. The ship staff was extremely friendly and helpful in pointing out the sea life. The captain was able to tell us knowledgeably about everything that we saw during our cruise. All in all a beautiful experience! But I love the ocean, so I am biased... | ||||||

| Weather was cool with a slite overcast, but burned off on the way home. The crowd had many school age kids for it was summer, but they were delightful. Boat was full, but we managed. Fishing started off very slow, then after many stops to find them biteing on our last stop on our way home. This made the whole trip worth wile. I'm going again soon. Tiny the Clown | ||||||

Lovely boat ride, but no whales
|

| Considering that the tour is called Whale Watching I obviously expected to see some whales, but I didn't see any at all. But I enjoy boat rides and so I really liked being on the boat on a sunny day with nothing to do, but to sit and enjoy the view. | ||||||

What whales???

| I know it was not your fault there were no whales but it was extremly boring when there was NOTHING to see at all. At least you gave out vouchers to try again. I noticed several people throwing their vouchers away. Guess they were not intereseted on going again even for free. | ||||||

Fishing was not good.

| The whole boat wasn't catching no fish. I don't know if it's the captain not knowing where to go or the weather but we didn't catch any fish. | ||||||
