Whale watching

You will get wet boarding and exiting the boat. Don’t sit on the netting unless you want to get wet, and don’t bring anything on board that cannot get wet.

Waste

Cancelled 3 times due to weather. They load on the beach, so if there’s any waves, they cancel.

Excellent staff, great whale watch!

Great crew and conscientious staff that kept an extra close eye on my elderly mother so she didn't fall on board the boat and could move around safely. Drinks were great and the whale watching was stellar.
