Tickets & Gift Shop (stop in and pick up a souvenir)
Come aboard the catamaran for the Whale Watch cruise which takes you directly to where humpback, finback and Minke whales live and play. You will find yourself spotting magnificent whales that sometimes come right up to the boat.  You'll see the sea turn a seafoam green then will see their backs emerge spouting the classic "blow" (the steam created when the warm air from their lungs makes contact with the cold ocean).  It is so exciting as the captain announces where one or more are spotted using the time as a guide..."folks....there's a humpback at 1:00"...everyone jumps up and cameras start clicking like crazy....the ultimate is when you see the tail terminate...the deep decent into the sea.   There are 3 levels from which to enjoy the whale watching...the upper deck (our favorite), the middle deck which has a galley that serves food, beer and wine, and a lower deck. Both middle and lower decks offer inside luxury seating. You will absolutely love this cruise which will provide memories of a lifetime.
