You cannot see every single type of whale but you will definitely see one of them. The ferry can’t go too close to the animals but it’s still an amazing sight, so remember to pack your binoculars or you can rent them for $10. If you’re expecting to see them up close then you’re better off watching a YouTube video, doesn’t make it any less worth your time though. Enjoyed it thoroughly and remember to wear more clothes because it’s cold.
