Great Experience

We loved our whale-watching adventure. The boat was clean and well-maintained. The crew was knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. Couldn't have asked for a nicer experience. It was good that the captains of ALL of the boats talk to each other so we saw the same whales as the rest of the boats from the dock that day.

Really enjoyed whale watching and the education I received from the Naturalist. We saw Grey whales and humpback whales. The humpbacks are beautiful as they come up to slap the water to get the Krill. Even though I got sea sick...I would do this again.

My boyfriend and I had a great time!! We went for our 1 year anniversary and we saw whales, over 100 dolphins and some rare birds. It was so exciting. The tour guide was so fun and into her job and full of information. The dolphins were jumping beside the boat as if they wanted to play! We loved every moment of it!

The people running the boat provided alot of information but not to the point of boring. I felt safe on the boat which was a concern for me. We saw four grey whales and they were a little far away, but I'm glad we went, and be sure to take something if you think you might get sick.

I always enjoy the Monterey Whale Watching tours. Every year, I choose to go visit the whales for my birthday and they never fail to provide an awesome, informative vision of nature.

A Fabulous Morning!

My husband gave me this whale-watching trip as a birthday gift, and I must say it was the best gift ever! I was impressed with the naturalist on board who continued to fill us in on the various species we saw while sailing. The other crew members were very attentive to all the passengers throughout the trip, and I noticed they were extremely helpful to those who became seasick. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in not just whale watching but to also learn about what lies below the water in the Monterey Bay! Definitely money well spent, and we plan to do it again in the future.
