    This was the most amazing experience ever! Captain Nick knew just where to go and what to say. He was very knowledgeable about sea life, and about history of the area. Although we didn’t see whales that day, we got to be in the midst of a pod of about 200 dolphins! It was amazing!

    Outstanding! Captain Nick was great! We boarded the boat and headed out right on time with another family. We loved that there were only 6 guests total which is always the maximum. The boat was great and Captain Nick had so much knoweldge to share with us. We saw a whale, lots of dolphins anda group of sea lions "resting" on a buoy. We highly recommend this trip with Captain Nick!

    (Read below for edit/update) Booked an excursion and you guys cancelled but never notified us nor the 3rd party we reserved through (Viator said they weren't aware). We called and were made aware that it was cancelled when we were standing on the dock after driving an hour down. Unprofessional management practice in my opinion, highly do NOT recommend wasting your time for anybody that reads this, people need to be held accountable for either laziness or incompetence. I would expect when a trip is cancelled that you make sure your 3rd parties aren’t still selling your tickets and/or make sure they’re notified. One simple oversight can lead to a lot of inconvenience for someone traveling while on vacation. I will say they did process our refund very quickly which was nice, but also the bare minimum. Owner was very kind. EDIT: received a message from the owner apologizing for the issue and he offered us a complimentary voyage during our next trip. He definitely handled it as well as he could. If we can make it back to try again will definitely adjust this rating accordingly.

    Wow. Captain Nick was incredible. We knew we weren't taking this trip during the "prime" season.. but Nick and his tour were beyond anything we could've hoped for. The boat is incredibly comfortable - super smooth and super dry.. we saw TONS of dolphins surrounding the boat throughout the trip.. and we had multiple whale sightings! In addition, we saw the more standard larger boats out there with us but WAY farther away from the action.. this was super close, intimate, and Nick's knowledge and education gave us an incredibly rich experience! Must do, and will do this again soon with other friends!
