Whale Watch Cruise
This is Boston's only three hour whale watch, and it's an experience you won't want to miss!
Not only are you guaranteed a whale sighting on this three hour cruise, but the high-speed catamarans that take you to the whales will give you more photo-taking, wide-mouthed gaping, whale watching time. Three outside decks and climate-controlled cabin space provide the best of views. You'll get the opportunity to learn more about the whales of New England--including the endangered humpback--through a narration by a naturalist from the Whale Center of New England. This is Boston's only three hour whale watch, and it's an experience you won't want to miss!
