Wonderful Day on the Whisper.. Brought our kids, they loved seeing the seals, the California brown penguins nodding to us from their wooden raft, the wonderful ocean sights and smells llfe. Our boat captain,Georgia, made it all even better with her knowledge of our ocean's sea life and harbor updates. Thank you1

Such an amazing memorable experience. We have an 8 and 6 year old and they can't stop talking about the boat ride, the sunset and the seals we saw on the boat. We even snuck in a mini Christmas photo shoot for our cards this year.

We had the best time on this little cruise around the bay with two other couples. Our your guide was so fun and made the trip enjoyable and memorable! Would highly recommend this short excursion.
