Amazing - Best crew to be out sea with! They really care for their customs and making sure everyone is good to go. Our excursion was bumped up to a different one where we were able to snorkel with dolphins and whales instead of turtles because our original excursion didn’t have enough people for it ( pay the extra money to swim with whales and dolphins than turtles, you won’t regret it). The experience was phenomenal even with being sea sick. We didn’t get to see any dolphins but we did get to see and snorkel with pilot whales and pygmy killer whales( very rare to see) . Also saw a humpback whale with her calf. There was even a shark that came around on our last swim. Steve was a great photographer and very personable because he took his time to learn everyone’s name on the boat. Overall, will be coming to this company for future excursions.

We encountered a lot of dolphins 🐬 The full set of snorkeling equipment was provided on board, and my first snorkeling went smoothly under the guidance of the crew 🤿 非常好!因为人少所以体验很加分👍 船员们都很热心,带我们看到了很多海豚🐬 船上提供了全套浮潜装备,在船员们的指导下我的第一次浮潜很顺利🤿

Breathtaking experience! - My 12 year old daughter and I had a blast on this excursion. We had a fun crew hosting us and we got to see spinner dolphins and humpback whales both on this trip! The sunset was stunning. I would highly recommend this trip to any friend or family member.

Whale of a time - We had a great trip. The captain and crew were awesome and we happened upon Hawaiian spinner Dolphins right out of port and then were able to watch a family of whales mother, calf and escort(large male) for over an hour.

Do it! - Excellent tour. Very kind and funny driver and crew members. Made a genuine effort to locate and “follow” the whales for the best viewing. You can tell they really love being on the water. Well worth the price.
