Upsetting that it was cancelled just the evening before, too late to book an alternative whale watching trip (and it was our last day on the island).

The crew was awesome. While the water was choppy the captain did a phenomenal job and the crew kept it fun and relaxed.

Excellent experience!! We saw many many whales! Bryce and Tamae treated us well! Warning: waters were rough therefore not for everyone. I personally loved it and have the bruises to show for it. Another warning, no restrooms on the boat.

Amazing view of several whales. We saw a baby jumping up over and over again practicing breaching and adults breach. Our tour guide Diego and captain Trevor knew so much about theses beautiful whales and where to see them.

Cari_W

We were very close to several whales and it was spectacular! The captain and crew were accommodating and answered all questions. I enjoyed the easy going atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

We went on the midday whale watching tour. It was amazing! As soon as we left the harbor we were surrounded by sinner dolphins. Throughout the trip we saw several whales. We had a momma and baby humpback circle our boat for at least 15 minutes. They were so close, it was perfect day. We had so much fun with our crew, Scott and Bryce had us laughing throughout the trip.

Diego, Trevor, Scott, John and crew were amazingly professional, informative and fun! They were amazing with our kids (5, 8 and 10), incredibly patient with an anxious adult (me) and they made us feel really safe. What a joy it was to learn about and see manta rays with them!
