intimate experience with wildlife - The unique aspect of this tour was the fact that we were in a smaller boat that was sailing. Much quieter and more intimate than in the big whale watch boats crowded with people. We saw whales and dolphins and some cool birds.

Monterey Bay Spring Break Vacation - My family and I were supposed to be in Zion. However due to malfunctions we salvaged the trip and went to Monterey Ca. Best thing we did. Our kids liked the aquarium BUT, the absolute highlight of the trip was seeing a bunch of humpback whales, dolphins, sea lions, otters and jellyfish up close and personal with Monterey Bay Sailing. These guys are a class act and love what they do. We got to go on there beautiful huge catamaran. Within 3 hours our guide led us to numerous humpback whales very close up and hundreds of dolphins swimming right with boat. I will post pics from our trip. Our 7 year old boy was ecstatic as were we all. We will always use Monterey Bay Sailing for our excursions. If you are in Monterey be sure and book a sailing trip or excursion or a sunset cruise with Monterey Bay Sailing.
