    Booked last minute and didn’t regret it. The weather was unpredictable (sudden rain, then sun), but the suits kept us warm. Got some coool shots of a whale. The boat ride itself is worth it if you like being on the sea.

    Took the afternoon tour, a bit crowded but we still got to see a whale. Hot drinks and cookies were a hit. The crew gives a safety talk at the start, which was helpful. Pro tip: get there early for the best spot on the boat.

    It was a unique experience. The RIB boats get you to the whales quickly and the trip is great fun. We saw some humpback whales, were even able to watch them feeding and the cherry on the cake was that we were there when 2 animals jumped out of the water. Simply indescribable!
