Whales Galore - Captain and crew were entertaining. They guided us to see many, many humpbacked whales. You should allow time for a long walk out of the port facility to where limo was parked. Appreciated the boat drop off on the beach closer to the cruise ship.

Great Experience - The hosts were very knowledgable and friendly. From picking us up in a Hummer Limo to finding whales that were feeding. I would definitely recommend them.

Great tour! - Okay. There were 3 of us and another couple on the tour. The other couple were navigationally challenged and we had to wait close to an hour for them to figure out the pick up point. Fortunately, we were the only tour for the day and Capt. Dennis assured us we would get the full 3 hours. Pretty much as soon as we left the dock Capt. Dennis spotted 2 (or 3) humpbacks. We spent the rest of the tour following them. Capt. Dennis had a timer and said they would resurface every 6 or 7 minutes and they did. They never surfaced close to the boat because it's impossible to guess where they would be but it was so fun scanning the harbor every 7 minutes to see where they would pop up. We got plenty of pictures and video though. When we got off our cruise ship another passenger told us he had seen an Orca nearby and had video to prove it. So, if I have a regret it's that we never went looking for that Orca. But! I think we were really lucky to have seen the whales we did. Capt. Dennis said normally that he (and all the other boats) generally had to drive 15 minutes outside the harbor just to find a "bait ball" on the sonar that would attract the whales. And even that wasn't a guarantee of whales. The entity that runs the cruise docks, Icy Straits Point, or ISP have decided that independent tour operators are no longer allowed on property to pick up for tours so follow the directions provided by CATCH OF THE DAY to the correct pick up point. It is NOT the excursion hub. You have to walk to the EXIT of the property on the other side of the round about. Thank you for a great day!

Amazing - Captain Dennis and Crystal gave us an amazing trip. We went out with them for the first trip of the Season and the Whales performed. The boat was so comfortable and both Dennis and Crystal were so informative and welcoming, funny and the bonus you are picked up and dropped off in a Limo Hummer

Extraordinary Whale Watching Excursion with Catch of the Day! - We had an awesome time with Captain Dennis on our whale watching excursion while in Icy Strait Point / Hoonah on our cruise with NCL. We booked this excursion on our own and couldn't have been more excited to be out on the water with only 2 additional passengers besides us (boat only holds 6 passengers total)! From start to finish, we had the best time learning all about Captain Dennis' business (and how he met his wife, LOL) while we motored out to find the whales. We followed the whales and saw numerous dives and breaches. Crystal, Dennis' wife, was responsible for transportation to / from the dock and was just delightful. We highly recommend this company for whale watching!

Whale Tails! - What an amazing excursion! This guy knows how to find the whales! Thanks for a great time! Got great photos and spent enough time out there to just experience it! Highly recommend.

Bubble netting blast!! - Unbelievable time watching bubble netting by humpback whales over and over. Captain Dennis was super and so helpful in forcasting when the whales would surface and where to watch. Having a private boat with just our friends made the experience that much more enjoyable.

Whales have bad breath - This was a really great experience. From the pickup to the drop off every minute was great. Dennis was personable, dependable, likeable and just a good person. Saw lots of whales. Discovered whales have very bad breath. That's how close we were.

Short tour but we did see a whale. - This was a good whale tour. The guide was knowledgeable and nice. Snacks were provided. We were able to be inside the enclosed cabin of the boat or out on the bow to see even better. We did see and follow 1 humpback and watch him feeding. The guide told us that others weren’t finding any active whales but we did hear that wasn’t quite true. Overall the tour was good. My only complaint was that the information advertises a 3 hour trip. Our trip from the time we left the marina until we returned to the marina was 2 hours tops. We would have just enjoyed using that other hour to try to see more whales.

They know where to find them - Four of us booked a whale watching boat trip. It turned out to be a very exceptional trip. They took us to several different areas where we saw whales. They let us out in the front of the boat which allowed good picture taking. I would highly recommend this trip.
