Friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable and fun for all the family

From the start the three crew members were very warm and friendly. They welcomed us on to the boat nicely, got on with the safety brief straight away and we got going with no delays. The two naturalists were very knowledgeable and very happy to answer questions. The boat felt safe, the kids loved it and best of all we say around 12-15 whales, a couple coming VERY close tot he boat which was just so special. THANK YOU!
