The trip was great! Weather was perfect and we got to see a whale, about 20 - 30 bottle nosed dolphins and 30-50 sea lions.

It was a business team building trip, it definitely served its purpose as being out in the ocean and seeing pods and pods of dolphins is such a wonderful and fun nature experience. I highly recommend it.

"Whale Watch"

Although I did not see any whales, I did see multiple pods of dolphins. They were all around the boat for easily half the trip and just a joy to watch. For bird enthusiasts, there were squadrons of pelicans diving in to the water for food. Very cool. The crew was friendly and a naturalist was on board to answer questions.

The boat was nice and comfortable and big. It was our first time on the ocean! I was happy they had bathroom accommodations just in case since we had a little one with us. We saw 2 gray whales! We will probably do this experience again someday. The whole family had fun!

We didn't see any whales but saw hundreds of common dolphins swimming and jumping all around the boat. It was also a lovely way to see the coast at sunset.
