Jamie Kennedy

Great boat trip only £5 for a 25 minute trip out of the harbour. If you're lucky you might see a few dolphins or seals. Well worth the time Great view of Whitby and the Abbey as you head back into the harbour. Definitely will go again highly recommend it

Myself, my two children and our dog had the best 2 hour wildlife trip onto the sea, we were lucky enough to see whales, seals and lots of sea birds, we had an amazing time, I booked my tickets in advance online and it was a fast simple process and the prices were good value for money considering how good it was, it has been the most memorable part of our holiday, I couldn't recommend enough!!

Wow!! Must have seen in excess of 40 whales, diving Gannets, seals etc on a most unusually flat calm sea. September is deffo the right time of year and this company provides solid boats and a wealth of experience. It made my year!!

Great trip. Boat was comfortable and had an undercover part for inclement weather. When we did see some wildlife, which wasn’t until we were half way through the tour, the captain turned the boat so everyone had a good view.
