Professional & knowledgeable crew

We went out on the Princess Monterey & were very impressed by the knowledge of the captain & crew. Their previous experience means they've got a very good idea of the best locations to look for whales. Their boats keep in contact, so if there's a sighting by one the other knows where to go. It was fairly rough when we went and the crew were very helpful with anyone who felt sick. We also felt complete confidence in the crew where safety was concerned. ...and best of all we saw 2 humpback whales together & it was absolutely fantastic.

Skipper was excellent, giving natural history info about not only the Humpback whales we watched, but about some of the birds as well, most notably the Black-footed albatrosses we saw. We all (4) had a wonderful trip and would most certainly do it again.

A delightful experience

I really enjoyed the excursion. Everyone, from the people in the office to the crew on the boat were very helpful and friendly, and made the trip fun. The naturalist, Katherine, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and made the trip very interesting. On the way back into the harbor, she spent quite a bit of time with my friend and I, answering a bunch of questions for us and really making the time enjoyable. I would sail with her anytime! The crew chose to look for orcas, which was fantastic since I didn't know orcas visited Monterey Bay, and we found them! What an awesome trip. Thanks.

cold weather, warm welcome

Sandwiched between Monterey's beautiful late fall weather the day we had scheduled our whale watching expedition was wet and windy with impressive ocean swells. Despite some hesitation we decided to persevere and we were glad we did. The crew did manage to find some humpback whales for us to view including a pair who gave us impressive "follow the leader" dives as we were headed back into harbor. Even in trying circumstances - it was cold and several people on the boat did not react well to the rolling of the ship in the waves - the entire staff on board remained cheerful, helpful and informative. This trip just whetted our appetite to return and sail with them again - on a nicer day!

Best whale watching trip ever! This is our first time out of Monterey and had the best time. Only downside was had to come back as time was up. :( We saw 2 humpback whales which came right up to the boat and stayed there for almost an hour! Also saw many white sided dolphin and many seals and sea lions. Great, knowledgeable crew, too.

Amazing tour, I would recommend to anyone visiting the Monterrey area. The captain handled the ship with more skill than I do my car! He was awesome and very knowledgeable about the Bay and it's inhabitants. This was our first whale watching tour and saw many dolphins and humpbacks, exceeding expectations. I hope to repeat this trip with you again next year!

Okay, I can only say fantastic. however, if you are motion sickness prone you might want something. we took zofran and had not one problem. It was amazing, dolphins, whales, jellyfish, seals and more. it was worth every penny. they have drinks and treats and the boat was comfortable and our captain was informative. just go and have a good time.

Wow how awesome it was to get so close to these wonderful creatures of God! We saw humpbacks, dolphins and porpoises throughout our trip. The weather was perfect as was the crew's hospitality. The narration about the wildlife was very imformative. Just being on in the middle of Monterey bay was a very peaceful experience. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a closer look at God's creation!

So much fun!! The Princess Monterey Whale Watching Cruise was truly the highlight of our trip. We saw whales and dolphins and seals, and it was just majestic and wonderfully fun. The crew was attentive and knowledgeable and super-friendly. The extra touches really made the day, like loaner binoculars and free muffins and coffee. Thanks for a wonderful day!
