Had a great time whale watching with fast raft. It was our first time whale watching on a boat this small and it was a great experience. Definitely recommend checking it out if you are in the area. We saw lots of whales in the 3 hours. The time flew by with all the action.

Incredible experience, Don was so knowledgeable and friendly making sure we were all warm and comfortable the entire time. We saw 5 humpbacks, one breached all the way out of the water; and 3 Orcas 🥹 Will definitely be back every time I'm in Monterey!
