We missed our boat (our own fault) and were heading back to our car. Another boat said we could join them. It was informative, breathtaking, peaceful and incredibly fun. Best thing we've done on trip in 4 days. Highly recommend. BTW, I was scared because of the small boat. There was no need to be scared.

Great morning seeing and hearing about whales. The Captain was very knowledgeable and friendly as well as her whale expert. They both were happy to answer all of our questions. They showed best respect for the whales and also for safety of all on board.

Our hosts for the trip were great! I’ve been on 2 other whale watching tours and this was the first one I was able to see several. Shorter trip which was also nice to avoid getting seasick.

It was amazing. Saw juvenile whales playing, peeking whale heads, breaching, and six males following a female. After leaving the habor saw our first whales with 10 minutes and continued to see them to the very end…Amazing!!!

Can’t rave enough about this experience. The captain and the crew. They were very knowledge and found plenty of whales. They followed the 100yard rule but amazingly the whales came closer to us. Saw some of them jump.

Amazing whale watching
Connector30072296597
, Jan. 2020
I had prebooked two tours with Ultimate but after my first trip, I booked two more! With the dinghy you get closer to the whales and you speed between the ones sighted. The crew were amazing on all four of my trips - so informative about the whales and they made the trips even more special. I can’t wait to return next January for more adventures, although being “mugged” by a mum and baby whale the other day takes some beating. Mahalo Ultimate!!
