We had a fantastic experience. We saw a pod of whales in the distance and the boat edged closer. We had a great view of the whales and the boat crew stayed out a bit longer so that all the passengers could see the whales. Highly recommended.

For a start it was a beautiful day, to be able to see the whales being so active in the water was amazing. We didn’t see much of the full body of the whale but it was a true experience throughout the trip.

We have done several whale watching cruises and have never saw so many whales. They were very active. It was a larger ship than we have been on before.
