Same old story at Newport Landing. Last year it was loud drunks (friends of the deckhands) and this time it was '300 pound Dude' (again, friend of the crew) crowding the hot co...

Well, we did see whales--gray whales to be exact. :) Our tour spent about an hour, or a little more, viewing at least 3 gray whales (maybe there were 5) coming up for air and flapping their flukes--no fluke! (I couldn't resist!) Several times we were able to view their barnacle-encrusted backs as they swam along the surface. This was so amazing, especially for my friend who for the first time got to see whales in real life! We had such a wonderful experience!\r more

The trip lasted for 2.5 hours. We were never bored on board. Ha! The ride was relatively smooth, not overly crowded (it was mid-morning on a Friday), and the captain of the boat was quite knowledgeable.\r more

I look forward to paying Newport Landing a visit next winter when migration is in full swing once again. There is plenty of dining, drinking and family fun in the area making this a great place to spend any afternoon in southern CA.\r more

After one visit yes I'm already a fan! During migration is definitely the best time to go whale watching. Do your research people and you'll know this. We were stoked when we realized that this season there have been record numbers of whales and dolphins spotted off the coast of southern CA. We were sure our whale watching trip would not be a bust. \r more

My friends and I had a lot of fun yesterday on our half day trip. It was gloomy and a bit cold, but it was way more fun than I had originally expected. Anyway, we caught a ton of sculpin and sand dabs, as well as a lizard fish that we released back into the water because who wants to eat a lizard fish anyhow? We also saw a blue whale (well we couldn't tell what kind of whale but I'm going to say it was a blue whale ok?) a ton of dolphin and a surprising amount of sea lions. It was pretty awesome.\r more

I surprised my spouse and took her out whale watching and we had an amazing time with the Newport Whale Watching Crew. Our captain and tour guide, Dustin, and his crew were not only very accommodating, but very knowledgeable and entertaining throughout the tour. We went on the 10am tour and immediately saw a few whales at the beginning of the tour as well as dolphins and sea lions. Definitely a worthwhile excursion. We'll be back to do it again.\r more

We boarded the ""Agressor"" boat, which is a no-frills cruising boat. After coasting out of the Newport/Balboa Harbor, it took a little time to see any sea life. Unfortunately, we weren't able to see any whales... bummer. But we did see a ton of common dolphins and cute, lazy sea lions. In all, it wasn't much, but hubby and I still enjoyed the cruise and beautiful sights. Since there isn't any narration on the boat, you definitely wanna keep your eyes open and/or just listen up for the ""oooo's"" and ""ahhh's"" when people see something out in the ocean. more

good 5/23/2012

The 2.5 hour whale watching trip was very comfortable. We saw a bunch of Fin whales and 50 or so dolphins. The captain spotted whales way on the horizon and went out and found them for us. The tour lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes. Food and beverages were available for purchase. Check in was easy, right next to the Ferry crossing. more

Incredible Trip 5/2/2012

It was an incredible trip. The boat was no frills, but spacious, super nice crew. They did scientific vocabulary quizzes for the kids, they were very informed about the sea life and they even ran half price drink specials for good luck : ) more

Nice 5/2/2012

It was exciting for the little kids and little kids alike to be out on the ocean and to see everything up close. Snack bar on the lower level (beer, wine, burgers, sodas, typical snack bar food). I'd definitely come back on this tour and recommend it to others. more

great person 4/25/2012

I really, really enjoyed this tour. We got lucky enough to 4 whales, which the captain followed back to the harbor. We saw what seemed to be a million dolphins, and sea lions. more
