Exciting

We saw so many whales and were among so many swimming and surfacing. Lots of big bearches ahead of the ship as well. It was very exciting. Our guide was a very knowledgeable (a type of marine biologist i think)

Safe experience

Great tour. It’s nice to sit back and relax while the tour guide takes care of the pictures. This was my second time with the same tour and it was just as great. You learn lots and feel safe. Great for all groups and all ages.

Wonderful whale watching experience

The staff and crew are very friendly and we saw a ton of dolphins and whales. The only problem was the lack of directions in finding the office. We were late because Google Maps took us to the opposite side of the marina.

Perfect day!

What a wonderful experience! We knew it was the tail end of the whale watching season, but wanted to try it out anyway! Good choice! Our guide, Oscar, was so knowledgable and excited to share his expertise, it was amazing to learn so many fun facts on our trip! We spotted a mama humpback whale with one of her babies and followed them for well over an hour! Baby was in a real 'show off' mood and we got to see numerous full breaches. Mama was always close by and made quite the 'splash' for the boat too. It really was a perfect way to start our vacation and we could not recommend them higher! Take the tour! You will be so happy you did!!

Operator response

Thanks so much for the fantastic review! We're thrilled Oscar made your whale watching trip so memorable, especially with those incredible humpback sightings. Moments like baby breaches and mama's big splashes are pure magic. We can't wait to welcome you back next season for more adventures on the water!
