Capt. Dave's

The most unique dolphin and whale watching in the world! Daily, year round, Dana Point whale watching trips aboard high-tech, high-speed, Catamaran Sailboat can get you up close & personal with magnificent blue whales (seasonal), gray whales (seasonal), fin whales, humpback whales, minke whales, orca whales, and five species of wild dolphins that can number in herds up to 10,000 and more for an educational and incredibly exciting experience. Our high-tech catamaran “Manute’a” is never crowded with a maximum of 49 passengers. Be one of the pod and feel what it’s like to swim with dolphins and whales without getting wet in our two Eye to Eye Underwater Viewing Pods. Knowledgeable marine naturalists explain how these animals live while you see and touch our collection of whale and dolphin artifacts. You can listen below the surface too with our research quality hydrophone. And Mrs. Capt. Dave’s yummy triple fudge brownies are served as a special treat on the ride back.
