Had a great time. Saw a few whales, saw some humpbacks - enjoyed the view, a few tail flaps- my photos were terrible because I spent time actually watching. It was pretty smooth on the journey but my kids got a teeny bit seasick, take a travel calm before your trip. Captain’s commentary was hilarious and made the trip fun! …. ‘I’m beached as’ thanks for a great day out!
