Perfect - We had a great time with up close whale encounters throughout the trip. Jill and Una were very friendly and informative. We have been on several whale tours and would rate this at or near the top.

Amazing adventure - This was the second time we have gone out with this group and both times were amazing. This time we saw three males battling for a good period and then had 100+ spinner dolphins come around. Overall great and our grandkids loved it.

As advertised, "the Ultimate whale experience". - Great experience with Chad and Cass, lots of whales and even setup an underwater speaker to hear them communicating with each other and their singing. Astonishing and beautiful. Great job guys, thank you!

Great experience from booking to returning to the dock - You will see whales , it’s a smaller boat perfect for offshore whale watching without a large crowd onboard

Loved it ! - The captain and mate were super friendly and very helpful in spotting whales. We learned so much about the mating season and their journey from Alaska to Hawaii back to Alaska. We saw many mamas with their babies. It was so much fun! And the boat ride was also enjoyable! Great weather too !
