We had a fantastic day when we chose to go out whale watching with 7 Seas Whale Watch. The crew is extremely helpful and informed about whales and the history of Gloucester. The trip out to the feeding grounds was about 2 hours. Once there, we saw countless humpback whales jumping out of the water, feeding and swimming around the... More

We went on May 6th as my birthday present. It was the best birthday ever! When my husband brought it up I didn't think we could as we have 2 small kids who I thought would be too cold out on the boat. But when my husband called they told us they had a heated cabin for that purpose. We... More

It looked as if we might have been on one of those rare outings where no whales were seen. We were starting to lose faith but the crew were very professional and worked with other boats in the area and eventually found whales. And their professionalism really paid off as we saw at least 9 Humpbacks ( including a mother... More

The best part was a knowledgable and personable captain. We went as birders and he took the time to chat with us beforehand to know what we wanted to see and then point out to us any birds on our target list as we came across them On top of that we got to see a BLUE WHALE quite closely,... More

My husband and I brought our 10-year-old, 2-year-old, and 2-month-old on this day trip and had a terrific time. Unlike the Aquarium's Whale Watch vessel, this one had room to go from side to side to see the whales without making enemies of fellow shipmates. The tour guide struck the right balance between talking informationally and just enjoying the day;... More

This was my first whale watch and I was really impressed by the experience with 7 Seas. We saw lots of humpback whales, very close to the boat. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and they provide a running commentary of what you'll see and what to expect, as well as facts about whales and their habitat. It took about an... More

Last year I did my first whale watch on the 7 Seas and this year decided to take 4 grandchildren with me and what an experience it was for them to see the whales so close to the boat. I can't say enough about the staff on the 7 Seas as they were not only friendly but helpful and answered... More

Great Experience -saw lots of whales! Take a sweatshirt or jacket- chilly ocean air. Would go again! Worth every penny. More

After reading all the reviews on here we booked this whale watch rather than going from Boston. The staff were so friendly and hopeful, despite the tour we were on being cancelled the day before due to by weather they booked us on to the afternoon. We were warned due to the bad weather we may have to turn back... More
