5.00My husband and I felt very taken care of abroad this cruise. We departed punctually and the crew was very attentive, providing snacks and drinks, and mostly just letting us enjoy the cruise to ourselves. Even though there were many others aboard the boat was large enough for privacy. Recommend!
Friendly staff and mai tais.

5.00Friendly staff they serve mai tais and chips and soft drinks included. Take dramamine for motion sickness prevention choppy waters but fun. We saw sea turtle and whale in distance but pick sunny day for sunset. Enjoyable! Least crowded of all boats going out.
Amazing crew and beautiful sunset, free snacks and Mai Tai’s! Boat was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

5.00January 2026. Actually had two experiences. We first did the sunset cruise, last minute, through Groupon. Be prepared for the $7 (or whatever it will be) fuel surcharge when you arrive. Day we went had pretty clear skies which lead to a pretty nice sunset. We also saw two pods of humpback whales, fairly close, one with a couple whales and one with ~7. Even though marketed as BYOB, there were free mai tais on board. Snacks were bags of chips/crackers. Non alcoholic included water, soda, and fruit drinks. We had a great time. Crew was enthusiastic and helpful. We really enjoyed ourselves. Second experience was just one of us (did get a 20% discount for booking a second experience ... could be really helpful for people who want to go parasailing). Did the snorkeling/water fun trip. Same crew, for the most part. I went really just for the snorkeling and that was lackluster. We were a bit above the reef and the water was not very clear. We were in "turtle town" and we did see one turtle on the surface, but none nearby when we were snorkeling. They did provide all of the equipment and the same snacks and beverages. We did some some whales again (though farther out). Many of the others on the boat seemed to enjoy the giant slide and jumping platform. Marley, captain, great job, and Justin as the mc/main host, also great. I think these trips can be hit or miss. The company cannot control things like the weather, where whales are, how clear the water is. So the experience will certainly vary. But a positive and helpful crew makes a difference, especially when things aren't otherwise fantastic. The boat also seemed to be in great shape, which is comforting from a safety standpoint.
Amazing
