It was not the first time when I went on a whale watching trip with these guys. But every time I went, only dolphins showed up. And this time I finally saw a whale! Beautiful emotions! It was also such a good weather and it felt nice to be out in the ocean. Thank you guys for such a great experience!

"Whale of a good time"

We were able to see two hump back whales and numerous dolphins. Our guide was very good at pointing out where to see them and gave us plenty of time to take pictures and videos. We went inside on the way back to the wharf due to the chill in the air but overall a fantastic experience.

"Whales and Dolphins everywhere"

Would definitely recommend this operation. The captain, a younger girl (don't remember her name) and the woman (Nona, I believe) did a great job of providing information about what we were seeing and the animals without being annoying and the captain was able to find several different areas where the whales were. We ended up seeing a ton of humpback whales and hundreds of dolphins. Overall, a really fun experience. The best part was that we did not have to wait very long before we began seeing action. I would recommend an early boat ride. We did the 10 a.m. trip on Saturday, December 7.

It was a sunny warm morning with a calm ocean. We only saw one humpback whale but it was fun watching it while traveling south. We got a couple of fluke views and a dorsal dance. It was enough to make the trip worth it. Unfortunately we didn't see any dolphins. The crew was knowledgeable and professional and I enjoyed the naturalist onboard.
