- Jetset ExtraSeptember 1, 2015The boat we sailed on was called “Manute’a,” and our kid loved it because it had two eye-to-eye underwater viewing pods. In other words, you can see through the bottom of the boat. Read more
Michael MorganJune 2, 2022Great tour with reasonable prices. I really enjoyed the staff and tour guides. The tour never felt gimmicky. Views are beautiful. Wear sunscreen or hat because not guaranteed shade on the boat!!
Andrew WarrenAugust 24, 2014So much fun with the knowledgable staff. Great information about dolphins and whales. But most importantly, we saw dolphins and whales! Love the underwater pods for viewing them up close!
Deep BarmanJuly 31, 2019Awesome safari . For me it was Captain Tom , awesome guy and made the whole safari interesting. Were able to play with the dolphins and spotted a Mikey whale

Irem I.September 3, 2014Best Dolphin and Whale watching safari near LA. We loved the experience. Couldn't use the pods though :( The water was too bumpy.- Myrna KasickOctober 19, 2013We saw hundreds of dolphins, and so many whales, we lost count! This is the best place to go for whale watching.
Ken MJune 24, 2010Great experience. There in September and found two blue whales. Literally 'awesome' - largest animal ever known to have been on earth and we were only a couple of hundred feet away from them.
Rick "The Undaunted Dad" DieterleJuly 17, 2011Their under water viewing pod is totally unique and awesome! The dolphins are literally within arms reach!
Jess BarronJanuary 1, 2012We saw 6 gray whales on the Dec 31, 2011 2:30 sail. It was awesome! Apparently, it's a busy year for whale sightings in SoCal.
