Q&A

Q: What's the best time of year to do the Waterfalls & Wildlife Scenic Cruise?

A: Late spring to early fall is ideal for this cruise. The wildlife is more active, and the weather’s usually milder. June through August is peak season, so expect more tourists, but also more opportunities to see things like whales and seals. Dress in layers, just in case it gets chilly out there!

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this cruise?

A: No specific age limit, but younger kids might need to be monitored closely. The boat is pretty stable, but there’s some rocking, so if they get motion sickness, maybe bring some ginger candy. It’s a fun outing for families, and kids usually love the wildlife!

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Yes, you can reschedule if the weather doesn’t cooperate. They typically let you know a day in advance if they’re going to cancel due to unsafe conditions. Just make sure to call ahead and confirm, and you should be able to pick another date without any extra fees.
