Beautiful. Informative. Cheerful and knowledgeable crew. At the beginning of the trip we dropped crab traps into Newport Bay, then we went out into the ocean. We got lots and lots of looks at gray whale. Also saw plenty of auks flying and swimming. Then we came back and pulled up the crab traps. All the crabs were identified and eventually thrown back in.

We booked our outing on a whim and could not have been more pleased. The weather was splendid and the educational items were interesting. We were lucky enough to spend the majority of time in the presence of a magnificent gray whale. The captain relayed his own personal story about this particular whale which was good to hear firsthand knowledge as well as the information from the two marine biologists on board.

My kids and us had a fun time! We got to see two whales! They also caught two crabs and a sea star that they let us hold. Super informative!
