No whales, lots of dolphins!

4.00Waters were a little rough, appreciated the narrator from the aquarium and her knowledge. We saw dolphins and that was about it. Couldn't bring food or drink and couldn't use visa because WiFi was down. The inside of boat had a smell, maybe because a few people got seasick inside.
Exceeded Expectations

5.00The experience was great. We were not guaranteed to see whales, but said they will do there best. The crew not only found some whales to see, but dolphins as well.
