What are my chances of seeing whales?
While we can’t make any promises when it comes to finding wildlife — given that they truly are wild animals roaming free — we take pride in our tremendously high sightings rates that are among the highest in the whale watching community. Our fast boats, well-positioned departure location, and dedication to going the extra mile all contribute to our remarkable success rate. But don’t just take our word for it — see the numbers for yourself!
