| The crew was very helpful and the boat was in great shape. The only bad note is that when I called prior to the trip I was told that $18 covered the pole, tackle, and sack. When we got to Randy's this was not the case, each was charged seperately. And when we wer told that our parking was validated we assumed we could park for free. Upon exiting the parking lot we has to pay $5 with our validated ticket. But all in all we had a great time and would go again. | ||||||

Where were the whales?

| We went on a trip with Randy's on May 9, 2009. The reception at Randy's shack was very friendly; then we were allowed to go to the deck behind the shack from where we could see the sea lions which was very nice. The checking in procedure at the actual boat went quite smoothly, the woman who was going to be our 'guide' was very enthousiastic and knowledgeable. The actual trip was a bit of a disappointment; not because of the staff or the boat itself but only because we saw one whale! However, you can't blame the organisation for this and they warn you for things like this on their website. In our case the probable cause was the presence of killer whales in the area so the humpback maybe went a bit shy. The ride was a bit rocky as well due to strong winds which caused high waves. The staff were very helpful though in providing tablets and bags for passengers who got ill and they also cleaned the toilet on a few occasions as some of the passengers didn't make it to the end of the boat... All in all I can't fault the organisation on anything, just a big shame that the whales didn't show up! | ||||||

| Great outing for a group of friends. Everyone hit or came close to hitting maximum catch. Great location and views (when not completely foggy) Only draw back was crowded boat (tangled lines every other cast) and no place to filet fish- had to pay. | ||||||

Great trip

| I have never seen a whale before, now I can say with great joy that I have seen many; killer and humpback whales. Thank you so much! Darlene | ||||||

Go for Randy's or Princess

| When we arrived at Randy's they told us that they didn't have enough people for one of their boats. They told us that they combined forces with Princess tours and that we would be going out with the Princess crew and their guests. I liked the fact that Randy's combined resources with princess instead of taking an empty boat out. The princess crew did their best but whales cannot be summoned on demand. We had one viewing of a large grey whale which was spectacular. It was nice day and the boat ride was nice with beautiful views of the shoreline. For die hard whale watchers I would recommend people going out during a season when whales are more prevalent. If your more realistic and understand that animals are animals and do not exist for your viewing pleasure, then enjoy the ride regardless of whether you see anything. | ||||||

Recommended for all!

| This whale watching tour was very exciting. We got to see a whale breach the surface of the ocean and then resurface numerous times. Make sure you go when the weather is calm and there are few swells. We took a three our excursion and would recommend a shorter one but that might be because it was windy the day we went. The skipper (Bill) was friendly and socialized with the passengers on board his vessel. Recommended for all ages. | ||||||

Whale watching review
|

| The holding area was a bit strong with a fishy/garbage smell but had a nice viewing of the sea lions. The boats seemed to be a bit smaller than other tour groups and filled up quickly. The tour was not for the faint of heart with a choppy ride out, and quite rough when the boat stopped for the viewing. A majority of the boat got ill, which was not a pleasant experience but understandable. The crew was great with a biologist on hand to explain what we were seeing and available for questions. The captain clearly explained his intentions and added to the experience. | ||||||

| The almost 3-hour trip was well worth it, if only for the 5 minutes when three humpback whales came right up to the front of the boat (maybe 20 feet away) and "hung out" with us for a little bit-- a spectacular experience. The rest of the time was spent trying to "chase" the whales and guess when and where they would come up to breathe next. Don't forget to take your dramamine! | ||||||

| we started out 30 minutes late 2 pm instead of 1.30 as advertised and then we returned after 1hour fourty five minutes, we understood the trip to be three hours long. we did see two whales for a short while and then returned to port ,the boat that was out at the same time as us left at 1,30 pm and came back at 4.30 pm thats what we thought we paid for. | ||||||

| Everyone in the family had a great time! We saw tons of wildlife, not just whales. The staff at Randy's was friendly and knowledgeable. We would definitely go again! | ||||||

| Randy's whale watching was a great experience. After we started seeing whales, and the convergence of other whale watching boats starting coming along, my girlfriend and I were happy to be on Randy's boat instead of one of the other overcrowded larger boats around. The captain was knowledgeable and friendly, and would always turn the boat so we could get the best view of the pod. We will DEFINITELY be doing this again! | ||||||

Boat Captain didnt know what he was doing.

| The boat Captain appeared to be a rookie who did not understand where the whales were going and how to anticipate there speed. We spent the whole day chasing the whales and never got into a good position to see them up close. We saw other boats whose Captain was putting their boat in perfect position. | ||||||
