5.0We saw Orcas and Humpback Whales! The staff were so knowledgeable and friendly. It was a perfect day with friends
Saw a humpback lunge!
Sep 2024
4.0We saw several humpbacks -one even did a lunge and his head came straight out of the water with his mouth open. Quite unusual and spectacular. Saw tons of sea lions and stellar seals. Naturalist was very knowledgeable My one caveat is that although there were ample viewing platforms - to get to the upper decks or into the cabin to access the bathroom there were very high steps - I was unable to access these areas. Because of this I would not choose this company/boat again - due to joint replacements They did provide coffee and hot chocolate and even offered extra jackets and pants for anyone who needed extra warmth.
Great experience
