Whale Watch Cruise
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!

  • High-speed catamarans boast three outdoor viewing decks, climate-controlled cabin space, state-of-the-art audio-visual, and a galley that offers snacks and beverages for purchase.

Customer Reviews
THe whale watch cruse was great. We saw about 6 humpback whales. The naturalists were very informative. Highly reccomended

-Tim Miranda, Catonsville, MD
I personally don't know because I was sea sick the entire time! But my husband and kids loved it. They saw whales, I saw the bottom of a paper bag.

-Joy Fullhardt, Garden City, NY
I would definitely spend a day whale watching again if I needed a day to relax. I was fortunate enough to have great weather and actually see the whales. If you love being outdoors and being near or on the water, try it.. If you want to spend a few hours to make a lasting memory for your family, try it. .

-Ms. Cecily L Anderson, Bronx, NY
