The captain and crew were very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. An amazing experience with a humpback whale and her calf, and fantastic encounters with 2 different pods of orcas. Highly recommendable!

Great tour with James and Sam! We got to see many humpback whales despite it being late in the season. They shared lots of information with us about the species we were seeing and the history of whales in BC.

Had a blast sitting in the front of the boat and hitting the waves, took awhile to find some whales but after cruising around we were able to watch some orcas! Very cool experience and very friendly staff!
