Beautiful sunset! - Beautiful sunset! We had a lovely time on this boat. It was super clean, in good working order, and the captain was welcoming and informative. We used the engine to go around the harbor to see the baby sea lions and other wildlife that was making it home. Then we sailed along the coast line where dolphins raced past the boat. The wind was COLD, even with multiple layers of clothing, hoodies, and a blanket provided on the boat.

Awesome sunset cruise around Monterey Bay with Kiwi!! - Kiwi was an expert sailboat driver and guide who went above and beyond AND gave us all the information we asked for. We saw mother sea otters with their babies at least 5 times! We saw hundreds of sea lions and birds who can dive 200 feet! Would definitely recommend to anyone and all!
Thank you, Kiwi! (Sorry if I misspelled your name 😬).

Brrrrrrr! But worth it! - We had a great cruise with lots of seal, sea lions, and otter sightings! If you are going in the early months I would dress warmly. They provide blankets but wish we would have had a little more on. The sun didn’t make an appearance but it was still worth the price of admission to get out on the water. Capt Tonya did a great job taking care of us!

Sunset Cruise! - Gets a little chilly but your provided a blanket if needed. Boat is comfortable and open. Provided adult refreshments at no extra charge. Vinnie who captained the boat was very friendly. Had the opportunity to watch Humpback whales breach out of the water! Very enjoyable for this Kansas man!

Monterey must do! - Well worth it! Capt. Paul was a great guide and captain! He was funny and knowledgable and gave us a relaxing sail around the bay. Although we got a "Monterey Sunset" (i.e. too foggy to see the sunset) we got lucky with loads of wildlife sightings: sea otters, sea lions, harbor seals, innumerable birds, etc. We had a blast and will definitely be back for another sail next time we visit Monterey.

Incredible Sunset Cruise in Monterey Bay - My boyfriend and I went and had an amazing time! We happened upon whales and really enjoyed the captain and other people that we met aboard. There was plenty of space to social distance and for it to feel safe and comfortable. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone!
