Welcome

This was a fan­tas­tic excur­sion for the entire fam­ily. We had two teenage boys with us, and this was the high­light of their trip. I want to empha­size that they loved the entire vaca­tion, but this was their high­light! The crew let the boys clean the crabs, catch them, and explained every ques­tion they could come up with about the ocean, its sea-life, and the Vic­to­ria area. The crew was per­son­able, help­ful, loved their job, and were absolutely top-notch. Our fam­ily, from grand­par­ents to teenage boys, highly rec­om­mend this excur­sion. It was the per­fect end­ing for an out­stand­ing vacation.

This trip was the per­fect way to end our trip; on a high note! The guides were won­der­ful, they were so infor­ma­tive and help­ful. We boarded a small cata­ma­ran with two lev­els, every seat in the boat was the best seat in the house! The pas­sen­gers down­stairs started with an open aquar­ium and touch tank demon­stra­tion, while the pas­sen­gers upstairs ate first. They served cof­fee, tea, cocoa, beer, wine, and sodas. The meal included a whole Dun­ge­ness Crab with melted herb but­ter for an addi­tional fee! It was phe­nom­e­nal! Pas­sen­gers were free to roam about the boat, onto the front deck and the back deck, change floors, and play in the aquar­ium at any time.This is a must-do, espe­cially if small chil­dren are involved. But I can safely say that every­one on the tour that I was on, had an amaz­ing time. Smiles on everyone’s faces!

I took the excur­sion with my hus­band, 25 yr. old son, daugh­ter and her hus­band. We all had as much fun as the young chil­dren. The crew was well versed in the wildlife in the area and the guide was fun and edu­ca­tional for the young kids by the onboard seal­ife tank. Learn­ing how the crabs are caught was fun and my fam­ily loved the hands on expe­ri­ence we had.The crab was deli­cious and fresh. We all highly rec­om­mend this excursion-worth every penny.
