Orcas, Eagles, Seals and Sealions all spotted - My wife and I took the tour on Sunday 13th April. The terminal was simple to locate, and all crew were excellent at what they do throughout the day.
Early into the trip the crew located a family of Orcas and stayed with them (within legal distance) for the allowable time, before moving on to show us Eagles, Seals and Sealions. Add to this wonderful views from the Puget Sound and it was a great day.

Worth it - Naturalist narrative was very insightful. We saw 2 different pods of orcas and seals. Food was surprisingly good. The thumb drive with pictures was worth it.

Whale watching tour - I went on the wildlife and whale watching tour from Seattle, and it was such a fun and memorable experience! The boat was clean and comfortable, with great views from both inside and outside. The crew was friendly and shared lots of interesting facts about the animals we saw.
We were lucky enough to spot a pod of orcas and a few humpback whales, which was absolutely incredible! We also saw sea lions, porpoises, and even a bald eagle. The scenery of the Puget Sound and the surrounding islands was stunning, making the trip even more special.
This tour is perfect for anyone who loves nature or wants to see whales up close. I highly recommend it—it’s a must-do if you’re in Seattle!

Convenient way to get out of the city. - Had a good time out on the boat with this crew. Knowledgable about thge area and the geography.
We enjoyed the fact that it wasn't too crowded.
Great way to get out on the water if you want to get away from the city.
