Great boat ride! - This last minute excursion was a great way to spend a birthday! The weather happened to work in our favor so it was comfortable! Bring a wind breaker just in case you get splashed and next time I’ll bring sunglasses!

Great tour, nice views of Tacoma Narrows Bridge - This was a great trip. The high point was the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, (which I'd read about as a child, because of "Galloping Gertie"). Wildlife was pretty good, too: Harbor seals, harbor porpoise, caspian terns, and then later at the harbor itself, tree swallows and a belted kingfisher.

Fun Day - The skipper gave a fantastic narrative. The boat is not the most comfortable but the two hours passed quickly with abundant sites and stories.

Wonderful harbor cruise - Seeing the harbor seals was a joy. The host was very knowledgeable and the stories were so interesting, especially the tragic bridge history. All and all, this was a great way to spend 2 hours and well worth the price.
