Itinerary:
Each Boston Whale Watching Cruise is narrated and guided by a naturalist from the noted Whale Center of New England (WCNE). The WCNE has been studying the whales of New England for more than 20 years and its members are recognized worldwide as authorities on whales. One of the whales you're likely to spot during a Boston Whale Watching Cruise is the humpback. These Northern hemisphere humpbacks reach an average length of 50 feet, and a weight of about 37 tons! Sadly, they're also among the most endangered, and its estimated that only 8 percent of their original population remains. With the data collected on each cruise, WCNE is able to further the understanding of whales and their world. And, their presence on board ensures that your whale watch will be an exciting and educational trip. Whale sightings on every whale watch. If you do not see a whale on your trip, you will receive a free ticket for a future Boston Whale Watching Cruise. The catamarans feature 3 outside decks for optimum viewing capability. Inside you will find climate controlled cabin space with cushioned seating, tables, state-of-the-art audio-visual, and a galley offering snacks and beverages for purchase.

Got to see 6 different whales and watch them for a while. I think though the boat was too packed. Couldn't really get outside to see them from outside too many people out there.
-
It was breathtaking to see the whales up close and personal. Only wish we could have hung out longer. But that is no fault anyone
-
Excited to see humpback whales for the first time in my life with my family. A great experience except that my family got severe ship sick due to the sea wave, so be prepared for that!
-
Great all around trip the person speaking & pointing out where the whales were was very knowledgeable & was able to answer questions
-

-
Outstanding! Crew was courteous, knowledgable, and professional. The whale sightings were awesome. We saw 3 humpback whales several times.
-
The whale watching was phenomenal however we had to wait in line as groups were made to wait in the hot August sun for “photographs”. Even if you did not want a photograph, you could not board the ship until the photographs ahead of your group were done.. the line was down the street and around the corner due to the slow progress of boarding and taking photographs at the same time. We wait 40 minutes and would not go in August again as the heat was intolerable in line.

Highlight of the Boston Trip. A must do experience. Whales were literally playing around the cruise. Such a surreal experience.
