Excellent Experience

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent Experience…the boat is a great design for whale watching and very stable. Captain, crew, naturalist all very knowledgeable and worked to make sure we had a great experience. Had an incredible experience spending time watching a dolphin megapod with a couple of Fin Whales in the middle.

Millions of dolphins

Published on Dec, 2024

Ticketing was easy. Staff was friendly and informed, and explained their efforts to help us see spectacular dolphin stampedes. This was a great experience despite a chilly grey day.

Actually saw a whale……

This was a fantastic tour! The tour guides were knowledgeable about the creatures we saw. Surprisedly, we actually saw a whale for a few seconds. Well worth the money! 5 stars!

Perfect private charter by Dana Wharf Whale Watching & Sportfishing

Relaxing Private Charter with great whale and dolphin viewing. Helpful and attentive staff. Customized program to our requests. Fortunate to find a pair of humpbacks who we followed for 30 minutes. Highly recommend.
