Will I see any orcas on this cruise?
While we cannot guarantee whale sightings, our captains visit orca hot spots and communicate with other vessels about recent orca sightings to give our guests the best chances of viewing orcas and other whales. On average, we see orcas on 90% of our Orca Quest Cruises. The longer you are on the water, the greater your chances are of seeing whales. Orcas are most frequently seen in the area from mid-May to mid-June, which is why we run this cruise during that time.
Is a meal included on this cruise?
No, there is no meal included on this cruise. We have a snack bar onboard, and you are more than welcome to bring your own food with you. Glass containers and personal alcohol are not permitted.
Will we see any other marine life on this tour?
While the main focus of the cruise is orca viewing, we often see other wildlife including humpback whales, Dall’s porpoises, Steller sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters, and seabirds.
