Amazing experience - We loved feeding the fish and looking at the seals close up. Our family had an amazing time. We loved learning about different things that we didn't know before.

Crew was great! Captain... - Crew was great! Captain exuded confidence and First officer moved well from upper to lower deck offering refreshments. Essentially once you disembark you’re free to stand on the upper deck with them and it can get crowded up there but they make it a very pleasant experience seeing the water from above and through the glass bottom. Even if you don’t see much marine life because of bad luck it’s still a great hour long boat ride.

Great Cruise of the Bay - It was a nice way to see the bay. You get fairly close to the Queen Mary and any cruise ships that are docked there. Feeding the fish was cool.. I wished we had spent a little more time doing that. But still, it was nice just to cruise around the bay.

Great fun - It was cool providing food for the fish, so they could come to area and we were able to view them in the glass proof the boat. I loved how the boat had multiple glass bottom areas so all aboard the boat can experience seeing the fish. I would have given this excuse 5, if I would have been able to view more sea life.

Overall nice experience - Overall we enjoyed the experience. The boat was small (and packed) no restroom on board (be aware) we didn’t really see any marine life. The “glass bottom” was only a select few cut outs in the bottom of the boat, I was expecting the entire bottom of the boat to be glass bottom or at least a good portion but that wasn’t the case. We stayed up top most of the time which was better because it was a beautiful day.

Not that interesting. - The boat puttered around for about an hour. Most of the passengers were young children shrieking bloody murder. We saw fish a couple times—they were ordinary fish. I didn’t see the point of doing this.
