I've been on trips from April to December, all a little different but all amazing! Doesn't disappoint!
Friendly staff & Knowledgeable naturalist narrations. The whales are beautiful! We had a whale of a time!
Fantastic experience. The crew was amazing. The boat was clean. Everything was really wonderful.
Jersey Girl boat tour of New Jersey Whale Watch in Belmar, NJ was so amazing today! We saw a ton of whales. Many humpbacks….some in pairs, like mother and calf, some juveniles and a few Minke whales. We were on the boat for 10 minutes and drove right through a passage with a bunch of humpbacks! It was one of their best whale watching days for the boat through a bunch of tours!!
We didnt see too many whales, but what we did see was really amazing. All the staff were really friendly and helpful.
Great, saw great pictures of the whales, great staff, fun for family. Dress warm
Kind staff and informative ride. We were lucky enough to see two whales!
We saw 3 whales swimming together. They surfaced and were playful, so the whales are still out there this fall. Go see them! We saw lots of dolphin and sea birds. Captain Bill, Danielle and the crew are so great and the boat is state of the art. Loved it so much!
We saw dolphins and a minke whale! Friendly staff that worked hard to take care of passengers. Laid back adventure. Loved hearing facts from the Naturalist over the speakers.
Best whale watch trip in the state. Very knowledgeable staff. Great experience!
An experience like no other! Our tour had some good luck today, I lost count of how many whales we saw. Highly recommend, they do tours until December!
Amazing experience! Go for it! I would definitely come back! Totally worth it! My 5 year old had a blast!
Fantastic ! Picked a great day for whale watching and the team didn’t disappoint! Extremely professional and provided such great information . Definitely doing this again!
What an awesome day! Chive (the whale) was giving us quite a show. The staff was really great on keeping us aware of where she could be spotted. My family had a blast. Memories were made. #AmazingDay
Great experience, would advise others to explore the Jersey Shore whale watching.
The crew was great. Very kind, welcoming and kid friendly. Boat was very clean and the location was great. We were seeing whales within 10 minutes of leaving the marina. They did a good job of getting in a good place to view the whales. We saw at least 4 different humpback whales. Danielle was the naturalist and talked all about the whales. She was great! Fun day with the family.
Amazing trip! Everyone loved the experience, totally worth it! Saw a lot of splashing tails and fins! Learned a lot about whales from our naturalist! Had a whale of a great time!!!
Amazing experience. Lots of whales, took so many videos of close activity, bucket list item checked. Smooth ride, great info spoken during the trip.
JSWW took fantastic care of my marine science students and made our class trip one they will never forget! The Captain was great at searching for and finding our whales, our naturalist was incredibly knowledgeable and took quality photos, and the staff were top notch. Overall, all of my students and our other chaperones said it was an amazing trip that they want to go on again. And of course, getting to see a full breach made it EXTRA special! At the end Bill was kind enough to give all of the kids a shirt. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you to Bill and the entire staff for making an experience that is education and fun for students of all ages.
Great afternoon. Terrific crew, informative narration. And we lucked out with a beautiful day, so it was a win all around.
Great Day Boat! Attended the 1230-330 Sail. Beautiful skies, the attendants were helpful and kind. Snacks were available for purchase and the restrooms were very clean. Saw about 4 Whales during the sail. I would definitely recommend it!
We really enjoyed our trip and were able to see quite a few active whales too!
I've been going whale watching with this company for a few years and I always have a great time.
Excellent views of multiple Himpbacks. The crew knew where to go and the naturalist Danielle figured out the names of two and where last spotted in migration.
We had a great time! At one point we stopped and had 3 humpback whales swimming around and around the boat. We also saw a bunch of great birds, including three types of shearwaters. I got sick while we were out and everyone was really helpful with ginger ale etc. I highly recommend this trip!
Did a 12 hour bird and mammal trip. Saw lots of birds and humpback whales.
I have been in many whale watching expeditions ranging from Maine to Florida, but never have I had the pleasure of experiencing a event like the Jersey Shore Whale Watching tour. Bill and his Crew are the most professional, dedicated, and responsible tour company around. They are so confident in their mission and service that they even offer a free return trip if you do not see a whale; in fact I recently returned on a expedition (for free) and saw a playfully curious Humpback Whale. Thank you Jersey Shore Whale Watching Tours for being so awesome and for the amazing experience.With over 400+ Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) spotted and cataloged in the New York/New Jersey waters though the non-for-profit research organization Gotham Whale, it makes trips on the Jersey Girl kind of like your very own local ocean safari. Remember, it is not a zoo so there is no guarantee that you will find whales. With that being said though, the adventure of searching for these majestic creatures adds a thrill of possibilities to the search. Plus, it’s always a beautiful day hanging out in the ocean.Recently, I participated in one of their 12-hour Marine Life and Pelagic Bird Expeditions. On Wednesday, October 9, 2024 a mixed group of eager marine biologists, naturalists, photographers, ornithologists, and adventure seekers traveled 40+ miles off the coast of NJ/NY aboard the Jersey Shore Whale Watch’s vessel, the Jersey Girl, in search for offshore birds, Whales, dolphins, turtles, and anything else that wanted to present itself to us. At the end of the day, we spotted:* 13 humpback whales; 3 of which were calves* 17 Bird Species* 2 Loggerhead Sea Turtles* 1 Leatherback Sea Turtle* 100s of Mauve Stingers (jellyfish)* Large school of Yellowfin Tuna* and 2 Monarch ButterfliesFYI - they offer a 12 and 24 hour expeditions periodically for which I stand behind 1000%. We saw numerous fin whales, minke whales, and humpback whales.Disclaimer: The crew of Jersey Shore Whale Watch and Gotham Whale follows the strict rules and regulations set forth by whale sense.Reminder: Give Wildlife Space - Make sure to bring binoculars or a camera with a telephoto lens, and give our wildlife the respect they deserve by not going near them.
A great trip. Crew is super friendly and knowledgeable. We saw several whales.
It was a good time. Boat wasn’t overly crowded. We did see a couple nice whales. My wife was able to get some great photos.
it was a great time! bought tickets same day we went on the tour with no issues! saw some whales and enjoyed being out on the water. definitely recommend!
Saw a few whales and had a fun afternoon on the ocean! The crew is great!
Had a beautiful birthday sail. We saw whales and the crew was knowledgeable and friendly.
Had a great time and saw three whales and a sunfish! They were very good and making sure everybody saw the wildlife and giving an explanation about the whales. Highly recommend
What an experience! It was just an amazing time and such a terrific crew. This is a must do! You will not be disappointed.
Amazing day at sea on board of the “Jersey Girl.” The day was gorgeous. Five minutes in we spotted a humpback whale doing shallow and deep dives, just beautiful. After that, we watched dolphins, birds and tunas, followed by two more humpbacks in our way back to shore. The crew was helpful, courteous and knowledgeable. I even accepted a piece of delicious chocolate cake from a crew member’s birthday 🙂 I plan to go back and I absolutely recommend it.
We had an amazing time whale watching. We saw several whales, dolphins, and tuna. The staff was welcoming Knowledgeable and friendly! Highly recommend Jersey Girl Whale watching!
Second time going on the jersey girl with the jersey shore whale watch crew, first time we sailed we got the chance to see a pod of about 60 bottle nosed dolphins and one juvenile humpback whale. This time we got to see THREE humpbacks. Definitely recommend sailing with them, nice clean boat, kind and helpful crew.
Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff, very educational, and they found great active whales for us and spent a lot of time out there with them so we could see so much of their activity. Great say!
We had a great experience on the boat. Great crew and service. VIP package is worth it!!!
Beautiful day on the ocean ! The captain and crew made a true effort for us to see many whales! A great day at sea!
We saw 2 to 3 Humpback whales in one trip! The naturalist was super informative and the trip overall was fun! I definitely plan on going again, it's so nice to be able to see nature's greatest gentle giants in person.
Saw whales, dolphins and a shark. Staff was wonderful and went out of their way to get extra viewing.
I took some friends from abroad on this tour recently and we had so much fun. The ride was comfortable and the staff very knowledgeable and quick to point out the whales, as well as facts about their ages and feeding habits! Highly recommended, we brought some snacks and drinks and enjoyed a lovely day on the water
Great trip. Saw whales within minutes of leaving the marina. Danielle, Bill, and the rest of the crew were awesome and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to come back.
Incredible experience. We saw multiple whales, different fish and bird species. We even saw a few Dolphins toward the end of our tour.
Awesome!! Staff is nice and friendly. We saw Two whales and a LOT of dolphins. Highly recommend.
What a fun adventure! We saw a whale breach and a few dolphins as well. The boat is big and clean. The staff is informative and helpful. Very glad we upgraded to vip
Excellent experience and staff. All were knowledgeable and super friendly! Great trip!!
Crew was helpful, very well managed, boat team did a great job with keeping the boat near a whale.
Such an amazing experience! Naturalist Brooke is such a great narrator, very knowledgeable and made sure to point out all sightings. We went for my daughter’s birthday and the crew was amazing! They announced her birthday and even let her man the helm! That was so special and kind! The crew was great, came around and offered to take pictures of us. Even helped with my daughter and her seasickness. 10/10 highly recommend going out on the Jersey Girl if you want a good experience! We saw dolphins and a whale on our trip!
Enjoyed the trip. My wife had never seen a whale before and was thrilled when we saw three humpback whales. Will be doing this again next year.
We loved the informative and interesting naturalist who shared a lot of cool i formation about whales. It makes me want to learn more about them. Yes, I definitely want to do a deep dive into whales!
Great way to spend our 21st year together 2nd wedding anniversary !! Saw several hump back whales. BYOBGet there early to park we arrived at 12 for 1230 departure on boat by 12:15 between walk and checkin. Got 2nd floor this time of year layer up and bring blanket was perfect.Enjoy!
Such a great experience. I would highly recommend it. It was a great education and an amazing afternoon.
Amazing trip. Staff was attentive and knowledgeable. We saw both humpback whales and dolphins. I highly recommmend!
By far the best experience. The crew is amazing and your naturalist, Brooke, is so knowledgeable. It was so nice to listen and learn from all of the information. We saw a few whales today and upon leaving, as we got closer to shore, we were surrounded by dolphins. Couldn’t have asked for a better day. Thank you to you and your crew for a great Saturday!
My first time experiencing a Whale watch. The crew was amazing. The Naturalist Brooke was very knowledgeable. We saw our first whale within minutes of being on the ocean. On the way in saw numerous very playful Dolphins. An overall outstanding experience and I would definitely recommend it and would love to do it again.
The most amazing time, and the whale was beautiful!! The crew was exceptional, so personable! The naturalist was very knowledgeable and so interesting. I highly recommend this boat for your whale watching adventure!! ❤️🐋🐋🐋🐋
Had a blast and saw a whale up close! Tour guide was very informative, educated us about a lot of interesting whale facts!
I booked my trip May 28th for a whale watching tour to take place on September 28th. A couple days before my tour, they automatically rebooked my tour for a different time. The day before the trip, they rebooked me twice. Then less than 12 hours before the trip they cancelled the experience.To be clear, I understand all the cancelling and rebooking for weather issues and I am not complaining about that. However when I called to speak to someone October 11th, no one answered so I left a message. I also sent an email on the 11th expressing my request for a refund since I will not be back in NJ.I received no reply. So I called again today and was greeted by a man, who claimed to be the boss, named Bill. I explained that no one has gotten back to me and I would like a resolution.Bill then became confrontational. Questioning when I emailed and if I emailed. I attempted to spell out my information so he could find my booking and he proceeded to tell me he is "not smart" and originally denied receiving my email or message.I expressed that I will not be back in NJ and I wanted a refund. Bill then got even more rude. Swearing at me, being a total jerk, and he was definitely not helpful nor friendly at all. I couldn't believe how rude Bill was, my jaw was literally on the ground with the way he spoke to me.Apparently Bill did some research on his end while he was talking crap, and saw that I was refunded on the 12th and kept telling me to "check with my bank". I questioned why they couldn't communicate that and Bill just got even more caddy and rude to me. I absolutely told Bill how shocked I was at how rude he was, which caused him to become even more confrontational.All I wanted was a refund. Instead I had to experience Bill, who was extremely rude and confrontational with me. I eventually hung up the phone because he was so rude and pathetic.After the call I did some research and saw a refund for 75% of my booking was refunded on the 12th. I'm not sure why they could not tell me that and why Bill had to be so caddy and rude to me for asking for assistance.Needless to say, I will never book with this company again and I definitely do NOT recommend using their services. Mostly because if something goes wrong, they are extremely unfriendly and refuse to assist and communicate.
A perfect whale watching trip. The crew is professional and knowledgable. Our naturalists did a great job. The boat is very comfortable and clean. I was able to find good seating and viewing areas. We encountered whale 250 and followed it along for quite a whale. Saw spouts, diving, etc. A great trip.Also it was fun gliding under the open draw bridges toward the sea.
We saw whales and dolphins. Enjoyed listening to information about whales. Staff was nice and easy on and off boat. Wish we had calmer weather but that's on us for last minute planning.
What a great experience today. We saw several whales and dolphins. I can’t wait to come back
Great day out on the water. Beautiful weather and beautiful whales. The crew went above and beyond. Highly recommend taking a trip on the Jersey Girl!
Team was very friendly and attentive. Worked hard to help find the whales.
The crew were very helpful and made sure you enjoyed your time on the water. The captain took extra time on the water to find the whales. Definitely would go again.
We saw dolphins right in the beginning. Took a while to find the whales but the captain let us stay out longer to find the whales. We found two! The crew is all very nice and accommodating. Highly recommend.
Saw two whales later on in the tour. They stayed out an extra half hour to make sure we had a good sighting. Very good whale watch tour!
My first trip was Oct 2020. It was great. Planned to go back November 2021, weather cancelled it. Planned for May, weather cancelled it again. Booked for July 3. Perfect weather saw tons of dolphins and a couple of whales. Staff great as always. I have been on Belmar Princess for fishing a few times.One of deck staff saw some activity, gave us a tip on where to keep an eye on ...he was right. Clean boat.Tip for people not familiar with the jersey shore. Get there EARLY parking can be limited in the marina, boat leaves on time!October 2024. Another great day. Tons of dolphins and a few whales ❤️
Had a nice time on the water, great weather, great staff, kept us informed what and where the animals were during our trip. Everything is available online to book your ticket, highly recommend on a calmer day….
Omg!!!!! Seeing so many dolphins and whale more than 25 times with big tail showing hitting water !!! So kool! 😁yay !!!! Great time !
Today’s offshore trip was absolutely incredible! It’s worth it just to see the sunrise out in ocean. I was hoping to see a sea turtle for the first time, we saw 3! There were whales breaching, flippers waving and slapping, tons of tails, and they even came up right next to the boat! Amazing day! This was my third offshore trip, they keep getting better and better!
I went on the 10/09/24 offshore trip. It was truly exciting. We spotted 13 whales and three turtles during our time out on the water.The whales were active and engaging—breaching, spy hopping, and pec slapping, which created quite a spectacle. They often showed their tails as they dove, and it was fascinating to see them kelping in the sargassum.The turtles were a nice bonus, gliding peacefully nearby. Overall, it was an impressive experience that offered a great chance to observe these amazing creatures in their natural habitat. I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone interested in marine wildlife.
Great day: 4 Whales and dozens of dolphins. Absolutely incredible. And, the crew couldn’t be nicer. Highly recommend!
We had a whale of a good time and saw many whales. The crew even pulled balloons out of the ocean keeping the marine live safe.
We saw SO many whales today!!! The nature guide was fantastic and the boat stopped to pull some balloons out of the water which I LOVED to see!!!
Great ride ! Love the information shared by the whale researcher that was explaining very interesting facts around whales that visit the Jersey Shore. We were lucky to see several whales and dolphins.My husband and I took a first ride back end of August; the ride was very nice but no whales were found. Jersey Girl whale watch boat honored rebooking for today as part of their warranty policy. Great service and very friendly staff.
Pleasant staff informative commentaryWe saw a hundred dolphins and 3 different whales!
We had a wild ride on the Jersey Girl . Lol sat up top and felt like a cow girl. Just needed a cow girl hat and perhaps a small harness, with the wind in our face and the sea spray too! Fun trip and fun crew! Second time and can't wait to do it again.
All of the Jersey Shore whale watching boats are greedy, so beware and do your research to look for non-profit environmental groups who run tours instead. I went on this boat with my mom and partner to see Bruce Springsteen at Sea Hear Now on 9/15/24 and it was a complete disaster. None of those boats should have gone out with strong swells and winds from a tropical depression down south and every single one should be ashamed of themselves. When you take people out on the water, you are taking people’s lives into your hands. The boat’s outdoor seating was unsafe for the height of the swells. The seating on the top deck was a group of lawn chairs that were not bolted down. People got injured in a swell when the chairs fell over. People on the lower decks got soaked on the way there from the swells. I also had no idea where the life jackets were. Many, many people were vomiting and throwing up from the rough seas. I am thankful they realized some guilt and brought us back before the show, where the large majority of passengers did get off the boat. No communication or follow up after the trip given the conditions. Overall a horrible experience. I’m just glad no one was seriously injured and I hope you enjoyed taking everyone’s money. I hope that was worth it.
Christine has been a wonderful service representative. She was able to rescheduled our bookings since we couldn’t arrive on time (at least 30 min before departure) due to NYC traffic (we came from CT, it’s our fault 😅). Thank you so much! 🥳🥳
It was a beautiful day, noon departure. The staff were excellent, the boat clean and comfortable. The PhD Oceanographer on board, from Rutgers, was incredibly informative and knowledgeable. They got a report of a whale to the north so we turned from going south toward Manasquan up to Long Branch. About 2 miles off the coast we stopped and watched a 35 foot humpback whale playing in the water. Then the guide saw a pod of dolphins not far off that turned out to be a superpod of bottlenose dolphins, over 100. Playing, breaching, etc. The guide said "this is like a National Geographic episode out here today!!" Incredible, affordable and informative. Will never forget it.
We went for my moms birthday present for the first time in May, but didn’t see anything. They were so wonderful and gave us a brand new trip at zero cost. We went this past weekend in September and saw a humpback whale, about 50-60 dolphins chasing our boat, 2 stingrays and my son and husband saw a shark fin. Absolutely worth it even though I was seasick the entire time.
The day was beautiful! The cruise was amazing! We saw 2 whales at one time, one was feeding and the other one playing, both within about 50 feet away from our boat! We also saw some dolphins and two seals! The crew was very friendly and the weather was sunny and in the 80's. A perfect day cruise!
The first time we went, we didn’t see any whales but the crew did their best to make it fun and informative. We were able to get another trip free and saw 2 young whales as well as dolphins. Everyone on the boat was so friendly and we learned a lot too!
Beautiful day, saw whales & dolphins for long time. Relaxing, great narrator explaining the whales & dolphins natures. Def worth the trip.
Had a great time! The crew did an excellent job of making sure both sides of the ship got opportunities to see the whale! Recommend getting there early for seating!
Great tour. You can tell that they care about the whales and approach viewing them from a lens of sustainability and preservation.
Awesome day on the water. The staff was so helpful and knowledgeable. Very respectful of the whales. We had fun watching dolphins play and saw wonderful whale #141.
Great whale watch today. Saw a whale and a super pod of dolphins. Crew was great too. We will do this again for sure. Nature at its best.
Great time. What a fantastic Naturalist on board. Learned so much. Studied one humpback whale through many dives. Great photo opportunities. Friendly crew. Beautiful, scenic cruise along the coast.
Wonderful weather, whales and informative narration! Saw four different whales and a pod of 30 plus dolphin. Great time was had by all! Thanks.
Great crew and very clean boat. The guide was very informative and kept us on our toes with every sighting. Great experience for the entire family.
What an amazing time! We saw a whale as soon as we got out of the inlet and saw the largest pod of mature and adolescent dolphins that we have ever seen with about 75+ strong. We also got to see a Mola Mola “Ocean Sunfish”!! The captain and crew were very friendly and informative. Definitely added to the experience.Highly recommend with our guaranteed sighting accomplished! VIP tickets are well worth the money!
What an excellent afternoon. Yes, we saw whales, dolphins and the like, but what a splendid experience! Great staff, knowledgeable guide. Go if you can!
Wonderful experience! Friendly staff and comfortable boat. We’re spotted one humpback on our tour! Highly recommend.
We saw a whale!!!!! It was a wonderful experience the staff were friendly and welcoming and the tour guide was very versed and knowledgeable learned a lot about whales. Great trip
Great evening on the water with helpful naturalist. Saw more here than I did in Alaska!
Beautiful day for a boat trip. We saw a Whale off Manasquan and followed him back to Belmar. Thrilling!
Don’t put this trip off like I did.. Great crew and great group of people.. beautiful sunny day and we saw our first whale spout in less than 30 minutes. The whales we saw keep surfacing, diving and tail slapping.. I’ll probably go back before the season is over…. Thanks to the captain and crew. PS a big shout out to the PHD student from Rutgers who was the onboard marine biologist….Lance Morrow, Summit, NJ
This was the best whale watching trip! We saw multiple humpbacks and several dolphin pods! The guides were knowledgeable about whale behavior and even identified the whales tag numbers. It was amazing to see and learn about them!
Great day on the “Jersey Girl”. Crew and staff were courteous and informative. We saw a few whales and plenty of dolphins. Highly recommended.
5x Jersey Girl Whale watcher and Wednesday, Sept 4th I brought 5 couples and their reaction was priceless. The comments most notable was we had a Whale of a time.
Excellent day on the water with an excellent crew. All are very capable and knowledgeable in all thing whales. Would highly recommend to all. Looking forward to doing the offshore trip. Thanks again. Offshore trip on 10/9 was beyond amazing. 12-20 whales breaching, feeding, fin slapping and more. 2 loggerhead sea turtles and a leatherback turtle was icing on the cake. Can't wait to go again. Everyone should go at least once.
Fantastic well watching and experience so two whales and lots of dolphins. You will have a whale of a time.
I took my mother and 2 daughters on the Jersey Girl to go whalewatching for my mother’s birthday. We choose The Jersey Girl for its’ experience. The day could not have been more successful. The captain knew the location of a whale and took us right to it. We were able to experience a full hour of the whale putting on a show. She breached many times, did chin slaps, fin slaps and literally danced around for us for the whole time we were out there. We were treated to a complete narrative from an experienced marine biologist. The sound of my daughter shrieking with joy when we first spotted the whale could be heard throughout the whole boat. The information they came away with could fill a college term course. Not to outdo the whale was the amazing sunset we were treated to upon arriving back at the dock. I recommend The Jersey Girl and the whalewatching, sunset trip to all. The memories and pictures we came away with will last a lifetime. Thank you Captain and crew of the Jersey Girl.
It was an awesome tour with my 6yrs old kid, was lucky enough to find 3 Humpback whales and enjoyed thoroughly the sunset cruise
We had a great time today. We saw a whale, a stingray and lots of jellyfish! The boat was clean and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable.Highly recommend!
What a great experience! Much more than I expected and so informative The crew made sure we got to take as much time as possible to take as many pictures as we could before heading back.
Best $50 I’ve ever spent! What a beautiful trip into nature! Fantastic marine biologist on board who gave continuous guidance and facts on whales and their behaviors. Crew was super kind and helpful! Will be an annual trip at the Jersey Shore!
Wonderful trip on a beautiful day and we saw two humpback whales!! The crew was very knowledgeable and I appreciated the safety measures taken to ensure the whales safety at all times. Highly recommend this trip.
Great experience, knowledgeable crew and naturalist made the most of our tour. Already planning to come back for another trip!
These good folks were truly a delight to work with -- from the initial booking and answering my questions, through a reschedule for weather, and of course, the day of the trip. High level of attention to the little things, like adjusting seats so my family could sit together and answering our (many!) questions. We saw two humpbacks in one of the most humbling and awe-inspiring experiences of my life. Highly recommend!
We are oFishally blown away.Even though we unfortunately didn't see any dolphins or whales, the boat ride itself is beautiful and calming..... and guaranteed! We get another free ride due to the 'non-cooperation' of the sea creatures. And it's not like it's anyone's fault!Staff even extended the ride by an extra THIRTY MINUTES because they felt so bad, and REALLY wanted us to get to see some excitement.The staff is awesome and friendly, coming on deck offering to take family pics (with YOUR camera. NOT the kind they charge $20 for by taking with theirs!); and giving little kids free t-shirts.It was really a lovely afternoon.
Tank you guys for a wonderful time and experience! Big thanks to Vinny for the outstanding hospitality! Eugene and Katya
My four year old son and I had a blast, our first time whale watching! We saw humpback whales feeding and learned some cool things. The whale(s) came to surface many times during the watch. We highly recommend this tour, andwe will be coming back!
Amazing afternoon on the water with a wonderful whale siting. The naturalist on board is fabulous. Highly recommend!
Had a fun time on the whale watching trip today. Breaching whale was a first for me.
A great trip!! We found and followed a humpback🐋!! Crew was nice and our Marine specialist kept us well informed! Will definitely visit again!
Amazing experience! Staff were very kind and informative. Would definitely go again!
The tour was wonderful. Whale that day was super playful and breached often. Ship was pleasant to ride on and there were great views of the shore.
Amazing!!! Totally worth it. Staff members are super nice and friendly. We got to see the whale play and it was a smooth ride
Great trip. Saw 1 whale break the surface of the water several times. Very educated staff & they move the boat for the best view.
Awesome experience! Very knowledgeable about the whales and other animals on the tour, and did a great job making sure everyone onboard has a chance to see them. Clean, comfortable environment and very family friendly.
Great time! Knowledgeable staff! Definitely got to see whales. Would recommend
guide was very knowledgeable and engaging and we were thrilled to see a humpback whale so close to new york city !!
Awesome time! Staff so polite and friendly. Couldn’t be nicer! Really enjoyed the time. Saw 🐳 whale… great narration by marine biology intern…interesting facts. Clean boat!
We had a beautiful day. The staff was as fantastic.If whales are spotted early enough tour could be cut by 45 minutes or so.
Was a 2 hour tour. Saw 2 whales feeding. Very nice. Young lady that described the difference in the whales. Great job. The hole crew did a great job.
Rescheduled twice due to weather but it was more than worth it! Fantastic day on the water seeing the whales. Tour guide shared just enough information without feeling like they were talking the whole time. I would definitely go again as they said you see different whales at different times of the year.
Great day for Whale Watching! We got to see a couple of whales and even saw a tale or two! Staff was courteous and very knowledgeable about the whales. I was not aware that whales emit a smell but I learned that today and smelled it. Lol. Great experience and a must do again!
Great day! We saw at least 2 whales and dophin and a school of stingray. Very enjoyable!
Staff on the boat were amazing! They taught you a lot about whales! Great experience!!
The crew is so friendly and helpful!! The boat is clean, fun and accommodating for the Whale Watch tour! It’s my second trip and we are planning a third! We had so much fun experiencing the whales and being educated about them during our trip by one of their crew member’s! Bill MCKim provides you with a great experience…..I highly recommend this tour!!
Went on Thursday August 15/24. Took awhile to see a whale. But we followed one for sometime. Crew was awesome as they gave us more time for whale watching. Great experience for us. Would recommend this boat to anyone wanting to go whale watching.
We booked this tour months ago with the understanding that we can cancel if need be. A hurricane was coming up the coast (swimming was actually prohibited at the beaches that day so not sure how they thought it was a good idea to sail but they did) but we called to cancel in advance of the 24 hour cancellation period as stated on our email confirmation. After a phone call with a very rude man named Tom who wouldn’t let me speak, I emailed to confirm that we were canceling and asked for a refund. After many emails back and forth, we were only refunded 75% because that’s what they said their cancellation policy meant. That is not what we understood the policy to be. So I disputed the other 25% with my credit card company. The following day I got a nasty email from them saying that they are going to send me to collections and report me to credit agencies. Needless to say we won’t be whale watching with this company.
