Whale Watching with Captain Rick

5.00We had a wonderful time with Captain Rick! The weather was sketchy to begin with and Capt. Rick told us we may not see whales and that we could get a refund if we chose not to venture out into the low lying fog/mist! We sure appreciated his honesty! We decided to give it a go and we were not disappointed! Rick was friendly, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable! We saw sea lions, a group of otters, a humpback whale, and a grey whale…He was able to bring us in so close to the grey whale, it was amazing!! I would highly recommend a tour with Captain Rick! We enjoyed our time out on his boat and learned so much about Sitka and the area!

5.00Captain Rick is a lifelong resident of Sitka. Made it so much more personal. When we didn’t see whales where they had been, he took us to another location and it was magical. Only way to experience this!!!! He communicated he would be running just a little late and then offered to drop us off right at the cruise dock upon our return. DO THIS!!!!!
Exceptional tour and professionalism

5.00Our original tour guide was unable to take us due to a boat problem. He arranged for us to go out with Captain Patrick Davis. I'm so happy that we had the experience that we did. I'm also glad that our original tour guide was able to give us an alternate yet exceptional experience
100% Recommend to Everyone

5.00We had the best time whale watching with Captain Rick! He was super friendly and made the whole experience feel really personal. Since he grew up in Sitka, he knew all the cool spots to check out and had a bunch of interesting stories and local history to share. What made it even better was that it wasn’t one of those huge crowded boats — just a small group on his boat, which made everything feel way more relaxed and intimate. We got to see whales up close and really enjoy the moment without feeling rushed or packed in with a bunch of people. If you’re in Sitka and looking for something authentic and laid-back, definitely book a trip with Captain Rick. Totally worth it and easily one of our favorite parts of the trip!

5.00There were only 4 of us on our boat, with Rick as our captain. He has lots of marine knowledge and knew all the best spots to locate wildlife. We were able to get to a spot where it was just the 4 of us and small fishing boats where we witnessed 2 whales, mother and child, breaching consecutively for a very long time- perhaps 15 minutes. I’d been on 3 whale tours previously and never experienced anything as close to the whales as I did here. I would highly recommend Rick and his boat for anyone who wants a more personal experience.
