Princess Monterey Whale Watching Cruises

This was an amazing trip for all of us (including children ages 3 and 5). The marine biologist on the trip was not only very intellegent, but funny and personable too! We were able to see humback whales, pacific white sided dolphins, and killer whales. The boat is very nice with an inside cabin that was heated to break the chill. The cabin also had a variety of snacks and drinks available to purchase. It is a good value for the cost! I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone thinking about going. We are already planning when we can go again!

pros: we saw whales and dolphins, sea lions and seals good comments, nice crew cons: some padding on the outside seating would be nice

I had fun on the ship The sight seeing was good I'd would have like to have seen more whales up close it was a nice experiance for my daughter I think we would do it again.

We would definitely recommend the whale watching tour. The price was very reasonable. Boat staff was very courteous and provided very useful information about whales. On our tour, we were able to see several blue whales, dolphins, seals, otters, and other fish.

We have been whale watching with this company for over 20 years. Captain Leon is great at finding animals to see but is always respectful of the marine creatures and will never do anything to bother them. He is also a master at handling the swells in any weather, and we've been out in some very rough weather! Benji and the staff on land are always pleasant and polite, ensuring everything runs smoothly. I got a personal phone call when our tour was rained out last winter. We go out with Princess Monterey cruises twice a year and wouldn't whale watch with any other company.

My wife and I went on the 2.5 hour whale watching cruise and enjoyed it alot. We saw several humpback whales and many dolphins. The tour guide was both informative and entertaining. We would have had some great pictures for the kids if our camera would have been working.

The guide did a good job narrating, we saw a ton of wildlife including whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions, and birds.

A fun girls weekend activity for us. Lucky to be rewarded with a fantastic show of humpbacks, dolphins and birds even in mid July. Very professional and friendly staff. Worth every penny!

simply super nothing more can be add

Nice people, charismatic guide, beautiful boat. Compared to some of the other tour boats we saw heading out, this company is definitely one of the better ones. My only suggestion to anyone going whale watching is to have everyone in your group take dramamine!!! Even if you don't think you will need it, take it anyway. We all did and had a wonderful time, but there was a small group of various people who got seasick huddled in the back of the boat throwing up the entire time. When we got to the whales and dolphins, they were too sick to even stand up and look. Kids included. A simple pill a couple hours before your trip can make a huge difference!!
