Grey Whale Experience - Great experience!! The captain was very good at putting us in a position to view the whales. Our boat was less crowded than others, which we really appreciated. Grey whale tours are pretty much the only thing happening in this town. There are a couple small local restaurants that are pretty good as well. I would definitely recommend this group for a tour.

Incredible experience - As someone who frequently travels and goes on many different types of tours I have to say this is by far one of my favorites. It was such a unique and incredible experience!! Karen(our guide) and the captain were very informative as well as persistent to make sure we all got a chance to touch the whales. If you’re thinking about going, don’t hesitate and book!
