Must do trip!

An amazing experience! The whole crew took amazing care of everyone. Lots of information was given about the area and the sea-life. The boat ride was beautiful and scenic. I was afraid we would be cold but the wet suits were great. We had breathtaking views of large colonies of sea lions. Once in a lifetime experience!

Wow!

Well, wasn't this just the most amazing experience. It was cool in every way - weather & water, but we were well catered for. The highlight was a sea lion nibbling on my hand & captured on the GoPro 😍
