Worth the wait - It was around a 30 min voyage into the ocean while being served water and Rum punch before we were blessed with what we had hoped to see and it was worth the wait, a sperm whale and a huge pod of Dolphins with an amazing view of the Pitons in the background made the experience worthwhile.

Saw My Whale - We loved the whale and dolphin tour. The staff was kept us well supplied with drinks, water, and a few snacks. We finally saw a dolphin and a speem whale put on a show for us. On the way back the crew gave us a lot of information about the places we were going past on the island. Would definitely do it again.

A wonderful experience. - After an early brief sighting of a Pygmy Sperm Whale, it looked as though we might not see anything else, but then we saw a female humpback with her calf. She broke the surface several times and then performed a classic deep dive with her flukes standing out of the water before gracefully disappearing below the surface. Magic. No dolphins, unfortunately, but lots of flying fish around (which I'd never seen before) as well as a school of tuna.
The hospitality on the boat was great as well as the information they gave us with regards to the whales.

Wonderful experience - This expedition was absolutely great from start to finish.
We were lucky to have good weather and the crew of four guys were very sociable and informative.
We saw three kinds of Whale , dolphins and a Marlin and then we cruised along the coast and went into Marigot Bay
We had a perfect day, which we will never forget
Extremely good value

Recommended! - A fun trip - all the staff were very great. Saw dolphins, but unfortunately no whales due to the weather.
We were impressed that the people at Captain Mike's HQ had taken in a stray dog who was pregnant and were taking care of her. The gorgeous pups are now born, but we feared for their future, especially as they are female. (There are many starving, stray dogs in Castries). I wonder if any kind tourists might be in a position to help out in some way .....
