It was a fun trip. We got to see Whales and Dolphins. Just make sure you take some Motion sickness pills and take some in case.

They did a wonderful job! We got to see whales and dolphins. Our guide was friendly and informative. We felt safe the whole time. We are definitely returning to see different whales in another season!

The entire experience with Discovery Whale watch was smooth and easy. My partner and I booked a trip on the Monday morning after Valentine’s Day. The crew was friendly, helpful, and full of fun ocean facts. The boat did not feel crowded and everyone kept their masks on during the trip. We even saw 10 whales. I would highly recommend this company, especially at Groupon prices.

Great 3-hr trip. Saw gray whale, 2 specifies of dolphins, and sea lions. Andrew is a great naturalist providing important information without going on incessantly.

About Discovery Whale Watch
Massive marine mammals are a staple of the Monterey Bay area, thanks to its nutrient-rich waters and bounty of plankton blooms. Discovery Whale Watch explores this sanctuary on two vessels, the New Horizon and the Chubasco, on which friendly guides and knowledgable naturalists give passengers info about conservation and the area's natural history during whale encounters. All ages are welcome on these narrated cruises that last three to four hours.
- Daily whale watching: In the summer/fall season, tours expect to see humpback whales, which visit the region to feast. Winter-season trips focus on the south end of the bay, where whales pass by the coast during migration.
- Sunset whale watch: From May to September, guests witness the awe-inspiring combination of a breaching whale and a stunning California sunset.
- Nature cruises: Guests wave at California sea lions, harbor seals, and southern sea otters on these trips, which are narrated by one of Discovery's naturalists or marine biologists and ideal for families or photographers.
