Big boat with a lot of room to roam around. The crew were very pleasant to each passenger. The Capt. gave an informative narration. The ride around the Bay and in the Ocean was fun. Definitely worth the trip. I do reccommend Spirit of Cape May. We were there in late September, so bring along a sweater if you are... More

Saw about 100 dolphins, no lie! Wonderful trip from the harbor to the ocean to the bay and back. Decent staff, great captain doing commentary. TIP: Don't go when they have the free pizza and hot dogs unless you want to be trampled by lots of kiddies and their pushy parents.

took the big 3-hour tour. probably saw a hundred dolphins but no whale. oh well, such is the nature of whale-watching. Crew was friendly & informative, and you can tell they care about the animals. The captain mentioned that THIS is the way to view these creatures, in their natural habitat, not stuck in an aquarium for our amusement &... More

Took a wonderful Dolphin Watch and Sunset Cruise. Captain made sure we got to see the dolphins up close, before taking us on a leisurely cruise around to Sunset beach where we had a fantastic sight of the setting sun. Then back up the canal to the harbor. Tuesday was 2 adults for the price of one. and kids under... More

The crew was very knowledgable. We saw lots of dolphins but no whales. There are snacks and drinks at reasonable prices aboard the ship. The ship does get crowded very quickly, So line up to grab a good spot and stay there. It's not worth going from side to side of the boat to see things, it goes around the... More

We took the 3 hour whale and dolphin cruise. We didn't see any whales, but we saw many, many dolphins. If you get the least bit seasick, don't go on the 3 hour tour because it goes 10 miles out. Go on the 2 hour dolphin tour and maybe take something before you leave. You will see dolphins, guaranteed. Very... More

Very professional staff, great information and knowledge of the area and sea. The boat was comfortable and clean. I would recommend this tour for everyone. Last year we started out on this boat tour and had to turn back because of bad weather after less then an hour, they gave us free passes for another day. They honored the passes... More
