These vessels bring you close to the ocean surface, creating the sensation of being among the whales in their natural habitat. This unique vantage point allows for stunning photography, capturing the majestic creatures as they breach the surface.

Best day so far! - This was the most amazing trip. We had the best of luck seeing a momma and baby whale. Our guides were so knowledgeable and personable! If it wasn’t the last day of the season I would have booked another trip with them. I loved the energy on boat, everyone had a fantastic time.

A whale of tale... - This tour was the ONE! Casey & Lacey's greatest hits were playing as we cruised out to see spme whale action. Even this late in the season, they found us a pod and a half to watch with plenty of tale action and a full breach!

Large number of whales - We had a wonderful experience. Our guides were great. They were very knowledgeable and got us next to a whole pod of humpback whales. We saw around 12 of them. They were coming out of the water and fighting with each other for the females attention. It was amazing. It was the first week in April so we weren’t sure what we would see but it was great.

Awesome! Don’t hesitate to book it! - Highlight of our trip! Knew we were in good hands, loved that they drove us around for quite some time, not just sitting and waiting but a lovely boat excursion. We saw several whales and were completely overjoyed with this crew and excursion .
