It was fun - When we checked in Simon checked us in and took the time to answer all our questions. He really made us excited about the tour. We didn’t see any whale, but we saw a lot of dolphins. One of the crew was personable, he didn’t have a name tag so idk his name. We couldn’t hear the announcement, we just basically went with the flow.

Great afternoon out on the water - A good pod of dolphines greeted us once we were out a few miles. They gave us nice close up views against a hazy but pretty new year's eve sunset. Small swells on a glassy surface. A wonderful sunset cruise.

Great Staff! - The crew were all fabulous! We saw a wonderful school of Dolphin but no whales. We did not anticipate the very cold weather as it had been warm during the day so we were very cold especially when the fog rolled in! The company gave us a 50% off for another visit which was cool! BTW the hot chocolate was excellent too!

Where are the whales - There was no whale sighting and it was very cold. Not a great experience. It was in April and May have been wrong timing. On the boat the guide wasn’t audible as the cruise was very noisy.
