They don’t lie - you WILL see whales! - What a fabulous excursion! Our captain Jonah (nope not kidding) and his naturalist exuded enthusiasm, which was contagious. Their pursuit of the perfect whale experience gave them as much joy as it gave us! They even let the tour run late in order to maximize the experience, and then brought some folks directly to their ship when it looked like they were cutting it close on the embarkation time. What a great time!

So impressed. - The Captain and guide did an incredible job. They shared their excitement and the trip was truly electric. We were very fortunate to see and hear humpback whales including Wedgee. We had a bonus and rare treat of encountering Orcas celebrating on the surface. The boat was small enough that you could see both sides even if somewhat obstructed. The team was well equipped and organized. I would definitely book with this operator again.

The crew were... - The crew were knowledgeable about the area and we saw lots of wildlife. We were lucky enough to see a whale breach too! It was a small group of 15 and 2 crew which made for a comfortable viewing experience.

Excellent Whale Watching Trip! - We had a wonderful trip with Capt Carl and Aiden (naturalist). They were both very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our time with them immensely. They went straight to the area with humpback whales and we saw a lot of them. We were very glad to have selected this trip.

Action packed whale watching trip! - Amazing trip - we saw humpbacks bubble net feeding, a pod of orcas, a mom bear and her 3 cubs feeding on the shore, eagles! Our captain and naturalist on board were great and we had nonstop whale action for the entire trip! Highly recommend!

Saw Orcas and breaching Humpbacks! - Fantastic experience. Go in the morning and you might not have to share the boat with a full load of passengers. We saw Orcas and breaching Humpbacks.

What Not to do. - Directions were absolutely incorrect. They did not tell that you have to take a gondola ride. They did not have anything marked and Nobody knew about the tour. It took us 50 + minutes to get to the meeting place. YES, we did see whales from about 250 yards away.

Not great - Saw just a few whales from a great distance, saw no other wildlife except a few seals in the water, very disappointing. Also was a 30 minute boat ride going and coming back.
