We had a good time, saw a thresher shark breach once we got out past where the bay and the ocean meet (cool line) and didn't see much else until the very end, about 5 minutes before returning we saw a few spouts and fins from two humpback whales who kept diving on us Captains were funny and they played good music. We sat in the front the entire time, definitely bring sun screen and layers. read more

Had a great day seeing over a dozen whales, hundreds of sea lions, many otters and one Sunfish. Clear weather and smooth sailing. In between loads of great history and eco knowledge shared. Crew was great. read more

Bear in mind this review is colored by having the single greatest whale watching tour that you could experience: we saw multiple humpbacks and followed a pod of Orcas for 1.5+ hours. There was more than one breach. The orca pod included a baby. It was sunny and 60 degrees. Nature was definitely cooperating. That said, the tour company did a great job. Everyone was friendly and accomodating. The boat was at full capacity, but you could still move around. Communication was clear. They were sensitive to the wildlife and did a good job getting a view while giving them space. The comm system on the boat could be louder (my only complaint). Conditions were "Favorable" according to our captain, but it was still pretty rough. Don't be a hero, take the dramamine, follow instructions. But highly recommend! read more

Best ever experience being in the ocean and watching whales so close up and other sea features .... Perfectly smooth ride with two kids ! Highly recommend for families even with young kids ... We will do it again ! The crew was very friendly and helpful as well. read more

We had a great time! Most of the ride was easygoing but cold. We got a bit queasy but the second we saw whales we forgot about both. We saw several schools of dolphins. I would love to take this tour again. We saw several Whales, including a humpback, Fin and BlueWhales. read more

I was honored to be included in a memorial to scatter the ashes of an extended family member at sea in Morro Bay. Sub Sea Tours provided the Catamaran for the ceremony, including the services of a pilot and captain. The staff provided exceptionally kind and sensitive direction to the bereaved. They let all of us know what to expect, how to handle any seasickness that may arise (which unfortunately did for a few of us but not me, thanks to ginger chews) and advised us that they would position the boat according to wind direction for the scattering. They were clearly prepared for this type of ceremony and very tactful in their interactions with the family. They also quietly pointed out wildlife as we made our way out to the open sea. Overall, the ceremony went off without a hitch and was a beautiful send-off for a beautiful person. Highly recommended if your loved one may have requested this type of celebration of life. read more

We saw more whales than we expected! And also a bunch of sea-lions! They maybe could lessen the people they book on each tour since the boat had little seating. Altogether great experience! My kids loved it! read more

We saw at least a dozen humpbacks plus porpoises and sea lions! The captain and Amy were amazing.

Loved our tour! Captain and crew so knowledgeable about the ocean and ocean-life and respectful of the whole eco-system. Even with a foggy morning we saw lots of whales and had a great 3 hours out on the water. read more

So, we actually didn't make it to our tour. We messed up and forgot the time! THEY CALLED US TO CHECK ON US !!! How amazing is that? Great customer service! Our next visit to town we will for sure go on a tour! With that type of service...it will be well worth it! read more

Spotted more than 30 humpback whales and legions of sea lions in a feeding frenzy. So awe-inspiring to experience the abundance of life on this planet! Enriched by the humor of Captain Dax and fascinating factoids from Amy. Not to be missed! read more

Thankyou so much SST peeps, our group of 4, with an elder (93) had The most fantastic experience here on a morning tour! Everyone was super excited to see several whales and learn about their tracking & pods of dolphins feeding like crazy! We felt very comfortable and it was a gorgeous day on the bay! Special shout out to the Captain and his lovely tour guide who offered so much valuable info and assistance when needed, one of our young travelers got little sea sick but you had everything we needed to remedy this! Just a fantastic day especially for our elder friend with limited stamina! I can't emphasize enough how much the sunscreen was a blessing, we all got a little suntan, just right! We will gather again in the near future and highly recommend this easy to get to location! read more

Had a great time whale watching. The staff is very friendly. Will definitely be back.

This was a great trip! The captain should have his own show in Vegas, very funny comentary on the way out of the harbor. He actually kept us out a little longer making sure we got another look at a blue whale in the area. He even offered to take funny camera pics with a toy whale. read more

The staff was amazing, very knowledgeable and kind. Amy had pocketfuls of ginger candies which she handed out to those of us feeling seasick and was supportive of some young sailors feeling nervous about the waves. We got to spend some additional time out in the water once we located a humpback whale. Would definitely recommend!!! read more

Well, we walked right up and within a amount of minutes, we got a two seater kayak and effortlessly were in the water and probably no more than 10 minutes from filling out the forms. And lo and behold we went out to see otters and by the grace of God there was one right there where we Embarked next to the dock. It could've been better. We could've canceled the reservation and seeing what we needed to see. Lol just kidding. We paddle Lead out and in no time saw what we came for. It was effortless and the nice lady that helped us helped me get my big butt down into the kayak without falling in the water lol. I would recommend them highly. On top of that I accidentally left my jacket there and the owner, Adam was kind enough to mail it to me. You don't see that kind of service nowadays. Thank you so much. I recommend this company highly read more

This was a really excellent tour and such an incredible experience. The captain and tour guide were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip really fun. The boat is smaller (which really made the experience so much better since you're closer to the ocean/sealife), so if you get sea sickness- make sure to wear your seabands or take medication first. We saw HUNDREDS of dolphins, quite a few whales, sea otters, sea lions, and truly had a blast. It was the best whale watch tour we've ever done. read more

We went whale watching yesterday and it was amazing. Our guides were knowledgeable, funny and helpful. We ended up seeing about 20 whales and other Marine life, and it was magical. 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

Best whale watching trip ever! I usually go about 5 times a year. This trip was incredible! So many humpback whales, I didn't know where to look! we were surrounded by whales and feeding frenzies. I have yet to see a BREACH! I will be back! Thank you Sub Sea Tours Cynthia Maldonado read more

Amazing tour! Amy and Dax are full of knowledge about the area and wild life. There was a point where we all thought we wouldn't find whales today but they kept going and boy was it worth it. The whales and sea lions put on a great show and Amy and Dax taught us a lot during the experience. 10/10 would recommend, cannot wait to come back and try another tour. read more

Whale watcjing with Sub Sea Tours was a great experience for my husband and myself. The staff was so kind and informative. I was freezing and the sweet gal that worked there let me borrow a jacket which made the day much more enjoyable. She so made several rounds offering lemon ginger chews and wintergreen for those folks that were feeling a little sea sick. Our captain shared bits of information along the way and really worked hard to find some whales. He so played great music. We only saw one whale but we did get to enjoy her for quite some time. The water was pretty choppy but that was nobodys fault. We had a great day and would recommend to others. read more

We started our weekend with whale watching while celebrating my grandmother's 80th birthday. I have been on many whale watching excursions but have never had such an incredible experience. We looked to our left, we looked to our right, and there were whales everywhere! We had up to 10 whales hanging around us for up to an hour. The staff was also incredible when folks got sick. They reminded everyone prior to departure if they needed meds. If people got sick while on the water, they were very supportive. We also had a very funny photo taken by staff (no spoilers). read more

We had a slight wait, since we went on a rainy day, it backed up everyone's schedule. While we visited, a young whale was hanging out in the bay, so not only did we get the "usual" tour, but we also got to see the little guy! (I consider that a huge $40 per person savings!) Great costs, funny guide, my only suggestion would be to mic up the driver, as I couldn't hear him if anyone near me was talking. read more

I had such a great time on the whale watching trip. The captains were really friendly and excited about seeing marine life. They worked really hard to make sure we saw some pretty fantastic creatures. The boat is clean the team is professional and there are bathrooms on the boat. They have some field guides so you can learn about the animals you are seeing. It's a great time. We did stay an hour longer in the water but I enjoyed it. Listen, I get that you've been on a boat and didn't get sick before, just take the free medication they give you. I took the medicine and I was good. read more

I took my 2 year old and 5 year old on the Sub Sea boat and they both loved it. Super easy introduction to the bay with lots to keep them engaged. Two days later, I took my 5 year old on a whale watching tour through the same company and it was phenomenal! DJ and Amy went above and beyond to make everyone comfortable and help people see the whales. I have been on more than a dozen whale watching boats and these humpbacks put on the best show I have ever seen: chin slapping, breaching, tail lobbing, spy hopping, lunge feeding, etc. There were loads of whales and everyone got great looks! I would highly recommend this company for those of you that have young kids. read more
