The crew members on the boat are very nice and consistently implemented passenger safety protocols. However, beware as you head towards deeper into the ocean approaching the destination, the seasickness is horrific. My teenage boys were sea sick and the staff kindly informed passengers who were sick to head towards the back of the boat. It was amusing to see manybpassengers clustered together in the back feeling sick to their stomach :). Coming back, it was great, I believe its because we were going along the waves. Would I do this again? 99% chance, no, lol. The staff and departure arrangement is 100% star service.

Wonderful trip. Beautiful calm day on the water. Best of all saw 11 whales and a calf. Some close enough to the boat to hear there breathing. The boat was super comfortable. The naturalist who spoke was knowlegable and interesting and the sound system excellent. One could hear her over the sound of the engine. Highly recomend!

Excellent whale watching cruise! Knowledgeable crew, clean boat, very professional from start to finish. We saw I know at least 10 whales, seals, lots of birds and even some jellyfish while we were out. The boat ride was great even though we had two foot swells to contend with that day.

We were so lucky and saw ~25 different whales, including 3 calves! The guides were extremely knowledgeable and made the entire experience engaging. The boat was very comfortable and clean. Would definitely do the whale watching tour again and will recommend it to all my friends/family.

Saw dozens of whales and our guide was so excited at each siting. A great excursion for three generations, me, my son and and two grandchildren. An experience of a lifetime.

Set sail on a 3 to 4-hour whale watching cruise, led by naturalists from the New England Aquarium—one of the world’s leading marine conservation and research institutions.

Spot varieties—humpback, fin, & minke whales and even dolphins, all in their natural habitats at Stellwagen Bank Marine Sanctuary.

Step out onto the spacious outdoor viewing decks or sit comfortably inside, taking in panoramic views through large glass windows.

Ask the expert naturalists questions you may have about all that you see—marine life, their behaviours, and habitats.
