Whale Watching trip report Aug 18 2019 , Just amazing ! A Triple Breach
Perfect hot summer weather brought a huge near capacity crowd to the boat everyone was thrilled to see a triple breach! The whale off the coast of Asbury Park was amazing. The Humpback whale breached 3 times in a row , yes i got the first two breaches perfectly the third wtotally out of focus but i will still share it with all of you.

The best comment of the day was by Billy, a great name by the way.. We were coming back into the Shark river in Belmar and billy who works on the boat as a crew and see whales all the time says to me , ” Even i got excited today and I see whales everyday out here!

Brand new program starting July 2019!

The Jersey Shore Whale watch is the only whale watching boat that we know of to offer whale Checks. A whale check is our guarantee and commitment to you. If you come out on a paid trip with us and we are unable to see any whales, you will get to come back this season for free to have another opportunity to see them. While we do see whales very often (Over 90% of the time), we sometimes get unlucky, and that is why we came up with whale checks to truly guarantee our customers a chance at seeing a whale.

We took out over 30 people on the boat today, (the new boat can handle up to 100 people!) and saw a large pool of Dolphins and then just when people were worried we would not see the star of the show.The first mate Harry spotted a whale!
