    Rare, fun, and worthy of a return excursion.

    Lee_B, Sep 2026
    Although the whales, bald eagles and other wildlife are rare, we saw four whale breaches and several tail ocean flapping sequences. Apparently, our trip was unique, but many of the people on other excursions discussed seeing whales coming out of the water, emerging blowing air and then submerging. We also saw sea lions, gathered on a buoy and bald eagles. Our captain Emma, and our guide Gus, were well informed, knowledgeable, and very friendly. The boat was small, but very safe and secure. Plenty of seating and viewing angles available. I would recommend bringing your own water and snacks. I would certainly use this company and return to experience this excursion of future voyages.
