It was our pleasure to be on board the Pacific Explorer boat to watch different kinds of Whale in Monterey bay. Late October and early November are goodweather months to watch Whales and other sea animals

Whales right next to the boat! Woo hooo!
Thu, Nov 13, 08   1:30 PM Mollymouser Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
11/14/08 ... We saw lots of California Sea Lions, a few harbor seals, some adorable up-close sea otters (eating crabs) .... all were very delightful and photogenic. Some nice sea birds, too (pelicans, cormorants, terns and gulls). Once we got to the feeding site (approximately 1 hour), we saw at least seven humpback whales -- some right next to the boat. Lots of spouts, backs, and tails!!! It was simply delightful. Be sure and dress in layers and warmly ... even though it was 75 degrees and sunny, it was very cold in the wind and the spray. Also, be prepared with meds and sour candies for some motion sickness -- the water/wind was choppy and some tummy discomfort was pretty common. Also, sunglasses and/or a hat/visor really can help with the glare. Boat staff was competent, professional, courteous. Boat facilities were just fine. (You may want to take your own snacks.) Boat is really NOT set up for a stroller or infants .... so leave them at home.

Good Tour

Good tour, took about 1 hour 15 mins to get out to where the whales were which left only 30 minutes for viewing before we had to return. But ship and crew were great and got us up close to the whales. would recommend to those with only a short time available to dedicate to a whale watching cruise.

Had a terrific time
Mon, Nov 10, 08   10:00 AM pickle Male 50-59 Local Family With Children
Benji, As I mentioned to you as I was leaving after the cruise, the crew was magnificent. The Captain was informative, and his boat handling skills were appreciated as we had swells to the beam of us. Over the years I have been aboard many similar charters, and Monte's style of taking care of the guests aboard was very nice. When someone got ill, Monte would be right there to make sure they were ok...We will highly recommend " Monterey Whale Watching" to our friends and clients. Regards, - Gary Clausen

Whales right next to the boat!
Sat, Nov 8, 08   10:00 AM KarenMurphy Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The staff members were helpful, cheerful, and made sure everyone had a great time. We headed out on a sunny morning, seeing seals, jelly fish, and lots of birds. When the first whale spout was spotted the boat headed in that direction, being sure not to be a bother to those wonderful animals. The engines were turned off, and before long, beautiful Humpbacks were coming alongside our boat to "people watch". We were treated to a great experience, and lots of information about the whales and their habitat. Great Time- Do it!

We had a great experience- the whales came right up to the boat! We were out on the water for a full three hours with spectacular views. The guides were well informed and very willing to answer questions. Enjoyable day.

It's awesome
Sat, Nov 8, 08   10:00 AM GlennMetzger Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We were there Nov. 8, 2008 That particular day two whales decided to be very friendly, we all enjoy the close up of the whales and will never forget the smell when they blow out the blow holes. It was very awsome, so awsome that other whale trips will probably not compare.

Great day out
Thu, Nov 6, 08   10:00 AM eleyal Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Enjoyed a whale watching trip with The Princess Monterey. Efficiantly organised, clean boat, sailed on time and out for nearly 3 hours. Watched and followed a pair of Humpback Whales for about an hour, during this time the crew gave a commentary of what we were watching. Also saw a dolphin on the way back to shore.
