Whale Watching
Trip: Cost: 25.00
per person for a 2 hour cruise. You go a couple miles out in the water is
all. Supposedly you may see dolphins, seals porpoises, sea
turtle, pelicans, and various whales. We didn't see anything except to far
off sightings that were one blow hole and one arched back. It was so quick
by the time we brought the camera up to our eye, it was gone! Suggestions
to go: Sunscreen in Summer, light jacket in spring, jacket in
fall/winter. Camera/film, water, Dramamine if you get ill. Stable
shoes (the boat rocks so something with a rubber sole), and cash in case you
want a snack (small snacks on ship. Location:
