Incredible Whale Watching – Mother & Baby Spotted!

We did the whale watching tour and honestly it was incredible from start to finish. The crew were absolutely brilliant — genuinely friendly, welcoming and clearly passionate about what they do. That really comes through during the tour and makes a huge difference. Special mention to Captain Dustin and crew Brock and Dani — they were fantastic. We were lucky enough to see a mother and baby whale, plus over five whales in total, which was amazing. The whole experience felt very natural and not rushed at all. The tour itself was run so smoothly and efficiently — everything felt effortless and well organised. The driver was great, and the team made the whole experience really enjoyable. This is easily one of the best excursions we’ve ever done, and we’ve done plenty over the years. It’s far better than your typical cruise excursions — much more personal and memorable. Would 100% recommend this to anyone.
