5.00The activity was exactly as described, a 2 hour whale watch. We saw several whales and even witnessed some breaching. Good to have many eyes on the seas. We had a relatively calm day so didn't see any issues. Was both fun and relaxing. Our crew was very safety conscious which put me at ease and they were just as excited to see the whales. Even saw a few seals on the way back. Definitely recommend.
Rough seas. No warning. Ask before you board how rough the seas are or you’ll regret your choice.

2.00So, we saw whales. But honestly the company should warn people if the seas are going to be rough and offer a refund or reschedule if swells are larger than typical. We had very rough conditions and nearly everyone aboard got sick. The trash cans were full of bags of vomit. I should have clued in when they were handing out the bags as we boarded… it’s likely I may never try another cruise like this again. Oh, and I actually HAD take Dramamine well in advance of boarding today.
