Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on the whale watch tour?

A: There's no strict age limit for the whale watch tour, but it's generally recommended for kids aged 5 and up. The boat can get a bit bumpy, so younger children might not enjoy it as much. Just make sure to bring life jackets if they need them! Also, the crew is super friendly and accommodating with kids.

Q: What should I wear for this whale watching experience?

A: Definitely dress in layers! Mornings can be chilly out on the water, but it warms up quickly. I recommend a light jacket and some comfy shoes, plus don't forget sunscreen! The glare off the water can be brutal, so sunglasses are a must. And if you're on the small powerboat, you might get splashed, so don't wear anything too fancy.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the tour?

A: If the weather conditions aren't safe for the tour, they will usually cancel and offer to reschedule or issue a full refund. Just keep an eye on the forecast a few days before your trip. The crew is super professional and won't take chances with your safety. It's better to reschedule than risk a rough ride!
