    Such an awesome time on this Whale watching cruise!! They have this cruise only at 10am every day. It was so convenient for us staying in Yarmouth. The boat is clean and the staff is very friendly and informative. We were lucky to have seen several whales. Also a pod of dolphins kept swimming with the boat! Just a perfect day!

    October is not as crowded as the summer cruises tend to be so we had seat choices inside and/or outside. It takes about an hour to cruise out to where the whales are. Once out in the protected waters of the designated "whale park" the hunt for whales began. Not many in October, so it took a while for a couple to swim into the area. Very cool. One swam very close to our boat and right under another cruise boat as if to say "Hi". Fun and educational.

    We had a wonderful experience on our cruise. Kathy did a terrific job spotting whales and dolphins and providing very informative commentary. It was our lucky day as we saw a huge pod of nursing dolphins. The pod was estimated to be more than 100. We encountered three species of whales: Humpbacks, Fin Whales, and a third species I can't recall. We saw more whales than is typical on a cruise so we were very lucky. Hoping you'll have good luck too.

    Overall a great experience with Hyannis Whale Watch. the boat was modern,clean,and spacious. Parking was accessible and affordable for the cape $15 for 4.5 hours. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable about the Whales and locations we were in. My only negative which was out of the tours control was the amount of recreational boaters interfering with the whales natural habitat. the smaller boats agitate and disorient the whales.

    Absolutely worth the price! A 4 hour roundtrip journey with the most amazing views and most incredibly knowledgeable team of professionals! Would highly recommend!

    Brought my 11 month old and 3 year old. It was a BLAST! The boat was clean, smooth waters and we had beautiful weather the day we went. We saw so many whales and even. Sea turtle! Highly recommend.

    Had an amazing time! The crew was excellent and the captain knew exactly where to take us - although they said the morning trip didn't get to see any. We saw over a dozen whales. We saw so many that we lost track of time and had to head back. Everyone was fascinated. Just perfect! They have a parking lot, it's $15. Food (hot dogs, hamburgers, pretzels, chips, ice cream, candy, cookies) and drinks (alcoholic and non) on board. Our boat was 75% capacity so had more than enough space-at least we did. We sat at the very front of the boat and got to see everything! Would definitely recommend this sighting company!

    Clean, jet propelled boat. Friendly, knowledgeable staff are eager to please. Entertaining and educational narration. Overall, a very well-run operation and enjoyable experience. Also, we saw dozens upon dozens of whales Highly recommend!

    This whale watch was the best I have ever been on. Very clean boat, lots of information on the trip out to sea and so much to see! We saw whales and dolphins. They did a wonderful job with parking and getting us on and off the boat efficiently and safely! I'll be heading back to Barnstable next year to go on another whale watch next year!

    Highly recommended this excursion, at first I thought the price was a little too expensive but after the trip I deemed it well worth it. None the less a reason to boat out into sea. Don't forget your sunscreen and a hat, oh and a hair tie or clip for the windy weather when the boat is going fast. Guides very educational throughout the trip, we learned valuable information about sea life. There are 3 levels to the boat; we sat on the 3rd level which was 18+ only. Slightly more windy on the 3rd level but less loud without the children. We saw multiple Humpback whales, and a few other creatures. Beautiful day for whale watching out at sea.

    Can we bring a dog?

    Pets are not allowed. It's 3.5-4 hours on a big boat, lots of people and nowhere for a dog to poop. Their website confirms with this which you can find under the 10 tips for enjoying your whale watch:… Read more

    Places to stay overnight?

    Hello, there are a few places to stay in Cape Cod! I personally stayed in Bayside Resorts and chose a package which included tickets for a lot of activities.

    How rough is the water?

    Hi! I honestly think it depends on the day and of course the weather conditions. When I went the last week of May, the water was pretty rough and a lot of people were getting seasick. But of course, if you are more prone to seasickness (which sadly… Read more

    Two humpback whales came up right next to the boat and one rolled over and had it's belly to the sky for a few seconds.
