We booked this trip on line for the 4pm departure and the cost was $47. Good job we booked, the boat was really full with a large party. If you want to get a seat on the boat, I would advise you arrive 30 minutes before departure. It get quite chilly on the way back to Provincetown when taking this last trip so be sure you have a jacket for the return journey.

The boat left on time and there is a good drink and food outlet on board. There are also toilets in board.

We saw a pod of dolphins in the bay - about 250 was the estimate and they swam around the boat. We headed out to sea and saw Minkes and other whales - it was great. The boat staff are really really good on their whale information - very professional.

It is almost a given that you will see whales on these trip but there is a guarantee that you have a free trip if you don't see any whales.

This is a great trip that you should not miss.

A huge down side is that the local car parks do rip off visitors to Provincetown with their astronomical charges to park your car - $15 to park your car at 3pm - it really is shameful.

While holidaying in Cape Cod, it would be rude to not go whale watching. We chose to go with Dolphin Fleet and booked online. A lot of reviews said the parking was at least $3.50 a day, but we managed to find The Parking Place in Bedford Street for $5 all day, so we felt we had a bargain. The weather was unseasonably warm, but very misty, which gave quite an eerie atmosphere out on the very calm water. The whole boat went quiet when the engine slowed and all eyes were on the water, waiting for a sighting. It was certainly worth the wait when we saw those bubbles rise and a huge humpback appeared just about 20 feet from the boat. We literally saw them left, right and centre. It was certainly a sight we always wanted to see and it far exceeded our expectations.

We went out on a beautiful day near the end of October. It was 70 degrees, unusual for fall weather! Our guide and whale expert, Carolyn was fantastic with all the facts about the area and what Whales we would hopefully spot. We saw 7 or 8 bluefin and quite a few minky whales but we also spotted a bluefin caught up in a buoy and waited with it until the shoreline rescue team came to help it out. The rescue team were in contact and updated us with the progress on the day and we could find out the outcome on the website later on. Amazing day, whales all over the area, left and right with beautiful scenery too. Friendly crew.
