    We were able to see both killer and humpback whales. A fun 3 hours out. Although it was very warm about 28 C it got quite cold on the boat, however, warm jackets were offered. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate were also provided at no extra cost. The staff seemed very knowledgeable and able to answer all questions. Free photos are avaliable on line a few days after your tour.

  • Wonderful morning !

    What a wonderful three hours. We were taken to a spot where we were lucky enough to have a super close up sighting of several humpback whales and to top it all we were then taken to an area where there was a pod of orcas. Interesting and expert commentary from the lovely Katie, and skilled captain Jasper knew exactly how to give us the best view without disturbing these beautiful creatures. Cannot recommend this team highly enough. What a day!

  • Must do!

    Absolutely amazing trip to see the humpbacks and wildlife. Saw so many humpbacks, (was not expected to see more than a couple), seals, bald headed eagles etc. The captain and crew were wonderful, very informative with their knowledge and would highly recommend doing this trip…wrap up warm!
