Wow! We saw a whale and dolphins! It did take a bit to find them and spot them, but well worth the wait! The boat can get crowded and you have to be quick to look, but the guides were super helpful and pointing them out. Sometimes it was hard to hear over the motor and waves, but it was a great experience!

You could only hear the speaker from inside the boat. Difficult to see out the front with so many people. Not a large boat. That said, we had gorgeous weather and great luck with seeing a whale several times and gannets diving, and dolphins (a little distant). Even got to see a penguin in the water. The crew were marine biologists and very knowledgeable.
