    All crew members were excellent and full of knowledge. Super friendly and the boat was great. Was nice to be able to walk around the boat instead of being stuck on a bench seat like some of the others we seen out there.

    We had an amazing experience on board the Springtide, watching humpback whales jump and dive. What a spectacular sight!! Katie was our extremely knowledgeable guide. Not only did she know and understand the individual whales, but she also provided history and information on the critical role of whales in the oceans and the important role humans have in preserving their habitat. I wish every person could see these magnificent animals in their natural habitat. Thank you Katie and Jasper (our Captain).
