    It was a good experience. This is my second time on this trip and was still in awe to see the dolphins. I had so much fun as the sea keeps me calm. Sad we cudnt see the whale.

    The tour should really be called the dolphin and possibly whale watching tour. Another family that was on the tour with us said this was their ninth year in a row taking it and that last year was the first time they saw a whale. Unfortunately, this year did not add to their whale sighting total as no whales were spotted. There were, however, lots of dolphins in multiple pods who seemed perfectly happy to surface all around the boat, so there were no bad seats for dolphin watching. The caption and crew were all very nice and shared a lot of knowledge about the area and its wildlife. The snack bar, while small, offered plenty of drinks and snacks/food for a 3 hour tour. All in all we had a good time and are not disappointed we went. It would be nice, though, if they were more up front about the fact that whale sightings are rare.

  • Must see sunset views and dolphin sighting cruise
