Perfect for whale watching. Wear their overalls to keep warm. Crew knew where we had to go to see whales. I have brilliant photos

Lovely trip out on the water, dolphins swimming alongside us. Unfortunately we didn't see any whales, but I still enjoyed the experience

Great tour with very educated staff. Did seem like a lot of the tour was travel time, but there are beautiful sights to go along with it. We were able to see humpbacks and Minke whales and they were gorgeous..you could tell how respectful and educated the staff were about protecting wildlife, I really appreciated this. The day we went we barely had to leave the “bay” area, so it was very calm. But, the tour guide said sometimes it is rough out so keep Gravol in mind if you choose to go on the trip.
Another addition was the warm floater suits you were provided with which we really loved! Recommend warm footwear (not running shoes). If you get cold there is a nice inside seating area that you can still sit in and enjoy the view. I wore enough clothing I could stay outside and enjoy the wildlife/birdlife.
Hot chocolate is offered with a few.

Very nice tour.. The sheer number of whales you encounter is exciting.. The winter suit provided is warm. Overall, highly recommended
Lucky for us the trip was in great sunny weather (although it was chilly of course) showing off the beautiful scenery as we travelled towards the sea in search of whales. We were not disappointed. The boat got us amongst the humpbacks within the first hour. We saw several of them sometimes in pairs and on occasion were very close to them. One actually jumped out of the water putting on a spectacular splash. Several gave a fantastic view of their tails as they deep-dived. Three hours passed in a flash. An unforgettable experience.
