Whale Watching

Great to see Boston from the water. The guide was engaed and informative. Being from San Francisco i thought it would be cold and windy and up ended up bring a lovely evening. The sunset cannon at the USS Constitution was great.

We did the Boston Harbor sunset cruise on Friday July 24th. It was a beautiful and informative time. We watched planes from the Boston airport land and take off. We saw the end of day ceremony at the USS Constitution. They offered food and drinks for purchase. The entry and exit process was smooth and there were plenty of seating options. We really enjoyed the cruise!

The Harbour Cruises Whale Watching tour is one of the best trips I have ever been on! They warned people very strongly that it was possibly going to be a rough trip and gave them the chance to get off and rearrange their trip. Even with a bumpy trip, we saw 3 whales all together, closer in than expected and they gave us a show to remember! The biologist on board was fantastic and her commentary was top notch. Simply.... DO THIS TOUR!

First the weather was great. Having read your tips we brought the right clothing for when we were out on the waters. The excitement of seeing the whales with their calves was the best part. We were excited to see the whales and some dolphins were all around our boat. I was able to capture some great moments with my camera. I loved sharing what I captured on camera with the researchers who were logging the whales to identify them. And they shared with several of us how they can identify each whale by the markings on their tail. The whole experience was awesome. Finally I appreciated that the captain and crew always respected the whales and their environment, giving them their space. The researcher on board helped me to become more knowledgeable about whale life and their habits. I hope the photos that I submit will help identify the whales better. Thank you.

We really enjoyed the Boston Historic cruise! We sat on the top of the boat close to the presenter. He was fabulous! We learned so much about the Boston Harbor and surrounding waters. We got to see several important monuments, locations, and ships of our country's/Boston's vast history. Our narrator/tour guide, Kevin, was incredibly informative and the way he presented the information was fun and almost like we were in a story! We got to see the Bunker Hill monument, the USS Constitution, and more!
