The whale watching cruise was amazing. We saw so many whales while also being taught great information by the naturalist. It takes around an hour to get to the area where whales can be found, but then you spend at least an hour viewing whales. We saw 8 known adult whales and 2 calves. We watched whales tail and full body breach, flipper slap and fluke dive. The boat is clean and has snacks and drinks available for purchase. The crew was friendly.
