Traveler reviews
I will be doing this every summer from now on!
This was worth every cent! We saw so many whales, the operator was respectful to the animals, we had an excellent view as the number of participants was perfect for the size of vessel. Was with a teen who doesn't smile and I caught him with expressions of delight and awe many times.
Great family outing even on a grey day
Great family event! Saw several whales tails & a couple that breached. Seas were a little rough. Highly recommend Dramamine just in case. Fascinating narration of Gloucester history as well as fascinating facts about whales.
Whale Watch
It was an amazing experience, the best experience in person with no cell phone involved. bring a jacket it be cold on the boat ride or rain jacket if you don’t to get wet. I will definitely visit again.
Incredible whale watch!
Best whale watch we’ve done! Knowledgable guide, flexible Captain, and incredible sightings!
Fun and educational experience
Excellent experience! Good guide (naturalist). Felt a bit long. Could be reduced by 30 minutes.
