What happens on the day
Climb aboard a state-of-the-art cruise ship to set off and witness the magic of the ocean!
After meeting up with your experience provider, you’ll board the large 100+ foot vessel to enjoy an experience of a lifetime! You’ll get to see many different whale and dolphin species up-close as they jump out of the water, sometimes as high as 10 feet!
Look for different whale species depending on the time of year, such as Gray Whales migrating, as well as Humpback Whales, Orcas, and Blue Whales of all kind! The ocean is plentiful with marine life, so you also have an opportunity to catch a glimpse of sea lions, sea otters, seabirds, jellyfish, and even sea turtles!
