Whales whales and more - Best day ever! Felt like we were in a National Geographic film just hanging around with pilot whales and dolphins. So many I think I heard they guessed around 80 pilot whales that day. The guide and captain were equally excited to experience how many we got to see. Never realized how graceful and beautiful they are until you get so up close and personal with no enclosure. Fun to watch the interactions and spot the differences in movements. Highlight of my trip for sure and totally exceeded my expectations. A bonus was sitting in the front spots.

3 hour thrill ride - The views were great. The ride was a little bumpy but nothing that could be controlled by the operator. You are at the mercy of Mother Nature. This is not a tour for children or people with any kind of back issues. Read the waivers. I would definitely do it again myself.

Great experience! - We had a great whale watching tour with super friendly staff. The boat riding itself is an adventure on it's own and with seeing all the marine wildlife on top it was a perfect trip. We saw a minke whale, pilot whales, a baskin shark and some blue fin tunas hunting. Thank you for a great adventure!

You never know…. - Tough day for a zodiac-style whale watching tour. The day was cold and windy with large waves. The ride out to the whale feeding area was grueling. Luckily we saw a pod of dolphins. The whales eluded us. The trip back to shore was easier and warmer. We saw 2 very nice and historic lighthouses.

Company canceled trip last minute and didnt refund! - Our trip was canceled morning of. After we paid for parking and arrived there. There was no text/email sent out prior to the designated time. We paid for the excursion two days before and have yet to hear back from someone/get refunded. Called three times and left voice messages with a call back number. It’s now been a week and I had to dispute it with my bank. Very unprofessional.
