A brilliant whale-watching experience - We had a fantastic trip! It far exceeded our expectations. We saw lots of humpback whales (as well as sea-lions). The small-ish boat meant we could get very close to the whales, and the guides gave loads of useful information as well as being very friendly. Though the trip was just 3 hours, they knew exactly where to go and were able to make really good use of the time to see lots of whales. It was all very well organised. They even sent us photos afterwards from the whales we saw on our trip. We were probably lucky with the weather - the sea was calm and I don't think anybody on the boat felt at all sea sick. A fantastic trip all round.

Best Whale watching experience! - We had an amazing experience! We had at least 5 humpback whales that were very curious about our boat. They surrounded us and we were even able to get whale selfies! The crew was amazing. Highly recommend!

Great crew and a perfect sized boat - This was a great experience! The crew of Maddie, Kenny, and Captain Danny were personable, very responsive and lead a great tour - we were able to see humpback whales, Rossi dolphins, and even a great white shark! Besides the crew, the size of the boat was the next best thing - it was a smaller boat and a perfect number of people in the boat to allow everyone a great viewing experience, very close to the water. I would highly recommend.

An incredible experience! - My adult daughters and I went on the afternoon whale watching tour and it did not disappoint! They took us out about 10 miles off shore where we saw 4 or 5 humpback whales working together feasting on anchovies! It was truly breathtaking! The boat crew was great and full of interesting facts about what we were experiencing. It was very chilly so be sure to bundle up! One of my daughters usually gets sea sick so she took a Dramamine about an hour before we left and was fine. A few others did become sea sick so be sure to take preventives beforehand out of an abundance of caution so you have a great experience! Would definitely do this again!

Worth an afternoon trip! - 3 hour whale watching tour, we saw lots of whales and the captain knew exactly where to go! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and advised us on the best places to look/stand on the boat! It was around 1 hour ride out to where the whales were and it did get cold so dress for the weather 🌦️
