Although it was foggy and overcast, we tooled around and had some fantastic Grey whale spotting... lots of spouts and surface dives from 2-3 Greys. One even spouted withhin 10' of the boat. Nice amount of passengers with ample seats for those who needed to sit (some outfits jam them in). The usual assortment of vacationing families with kiddos. Comfy cabin seating if you wanted wand a head if you felt the need. Ocean had 3-6' swells which the captain navigated with expertise. Captain took us to Whale Harbor for some Bald Eagle spotting. Highly recomend!

What a FUN experience this was! We saw whales (I saw the tail splashing out in addition to the…read morewater spout shooting up water!!) so exciting! The tail was elegant and magnificent. The boat ride was super rocky and we each had to hold on tight for the ride of our lives (I did this tour at the end of March, first week of the whale migration, and it was freezing too at that time) it felt like being on a scary ride at Disneyland, but here was the actual possibility of overturning a boat I mean it was COOL if you are a daredevil like me. I did see a girl throw up on the side deck. And an older lady fearing for her life said she'd never do this again. LOL Personally, I'll be back here for the ride of my life next time I'm in Depoe Bay to whale watch! YeeHa and Giddy Up cowboys!

Don't skip the video or the opportunity to view the exhibits in the museum, there is much to learn about these amazing creatures. Depoe Bay is blessed with a plentiful food source, and a protective environment for grey whales. I've lived in the Pacific Northwest most of my life and have taken for granted just how accessible whales really are in this region. During peak migration months it's possible to view the whales right from your car as you're driving down Highway 101! From the moment we booked our $55 tickets for a six-person, 90-minute whale watching tour along the coast, everyone at Eco Excursions made us feel welcome. It's evident these folks really love what they do, because everything just fell into place. Booking tickets was easy, checking in was a breeze, any concerns about locating and boarding the boat were taken care of. Our guide was friendly and informative, and really went out of his way to make sure we had a pleasant experience. There's something so magical about viewing these gentle giants in their natural habitat. Experiencing whale breath, viewing them so closely you can count the barnacles attached to them, and repeatedly seeing them surface and fluke... nothing compares! It's difficult to explain the pure joy I felt out on the water with a team who clearly bring their A-game to work every day! Thank you so much, Whale Research Eco Excursions - your tour ranks very highly in the list of my most treasured life experiences.
