Several humpback whales!!!

Published on Jan, 2025

Saw several humpback whales and even a raft with dozens of sea lions. The boat was very big and spacious, I never had any problems getting around to see whales or worrying about anybody in my way. The whole time the crew gave us some really interesting facts about whales I didn't know. A great bonding experience for my brother and I.

I Would do this Again and Again.

We had an amazing day on the Sea Goddess - the guide was so knowledgeable, the staff accommodating and friendly, and the ship impeccably maintained. We were fortunate with the weather and we viewed a lot of humpback whales, orcas, seals, sea otters and beautiful birds. I would do this again and again.

Lovely and adventurous outing.

Published on Nov, 2024

The day was lovely and we saw lots of whales very soon during the trip. The naturalist on board provided lots of useful information.

Awesome experience

Published on Oct, 2024

Very cool and fun tour! And we saw SO MANY humpback whales all around the boat! It was great learning about all kinds of marine animals from the biologists on board, too!

Great morning on the bay!

Published on Oct, 2024

Our naturalist was knowledgeable and kind. Saw many pods of humpbacks. Quite the experience! Staff were friendly and helpful. Even if we hadn’t see all the wildlife, it still would have been a great day. Cooperative weather and sea conditions were also helpful!
