An excellent whale watch - I have been on over 40 whale watch trips across the world, and this was up there! Mick, our captain and guide, was fantastic. Found orcas quickly, as well as humpbacks, sealions, seals and a bald eagle. His commentary was fun and interesting and the three hours flew by despite the cold day! I would definitely recommend.

Best day of vacation - Johnny was our naturalist/captain. Very informative and worked hard to take us where we’d see the most wildlife. Love the fact that all the boats communicate and share whale sighting locations. The “survival suits” were perfect.. very warm.

Very fun and interesting, just not lucky with the other guests. - Liam was a great host and gave us plenty of information on the wildlife and clearly cared about them. Unfortunately we had a group which seemed to be in a rush and pressured Liam to go back slightly earlier. We missed a few whales because of this.
