Reviews of Sanctuary Cruises
"We had an exceptional experience during the whale watching cruise. Our sightings included grey whales, sea otters, sea lions and a variety of birds. It was a delightful day for a cruise. We were in the ocean for about 4 hours and Mike explained whales behavior, migration, and lifestyle changes pretty well. Recommend this cruise. Would love to go again in summer to see some more."
"Definitely worth the trip. We came for Thanksgiving weekend trip, and saw huge pod of humpback whales including the 6-7 smaller “party” pod who showed us a good time. Our crew Chase was really nice too, helpful and super informational."
"In the last two weeks, I have had the most incredible whale watching experiences with Sanctuary Cruises based in Moss Landing. Both Captain Mike and Captain Joey literally went the extra mile to give us the very best experience while being extremely respectful of the wildlife. On Thanksgiving, we spent the feast with a lovely family of Orcas. Naturalist John Carlo Thomae and Captain Joey shared information with us as we observed a true wonder of nature. The Orcas were teaching their youngest member of the pod hunting strategies. Incredible! A week later Captain Mike skillfully navigated by a group of humpback whales that were cooperatively feeding. Naturalist and professional photographer Chase Decker, skillfully predicted where to point our cameras as the whales lunged out of the water, fish flying and mouths wide open. The crew on Sanctuary Cruises Whale Watching are always professional, informative and safety conscious. They are fun too! Why do I love this particular vessel? When a humpback whale approaches us spy hopping along side us, there is nothing more profound......we are a mere 43 feet in length, totally sea worthy but slightly smaller than an adult humpback whale. From our platform, we are eye to eye with a sentient being who has chosen to approach us for a closer look. On a larger vessel such experiences are just not the same. Thank you"
"I can't say enough good things about Sanctuary Cruises! I've had the pleasure of going on their whale watch tours multiple times, and each trip has been an absolute blast. The proximity to Santa Cruz makes it the ideal day trip — you can have lunch at 11 and watch whales feed by noon. Chase Dekker is a talented naturalist and photographer who knows how to position the boat to help you capture great images. The variety of marine life you can encounter in the Monterey Bay is exceptional. I've been fortunate to witness humpbacks, orcas, dolphins, gray whales, and more. Each trip is a new adventure, I highly recommend going out multiple times in a season to see it all. Don't miss out – book your tour with them today!"
"This was my first whale watching tour and I'm so happy we chose Sanctuary Cruises. So awesome that this sustainable charter boat uses biodiesel! The captain and Brian (marine biologist) were so nice and accommodating and expert with their info and their ability to locate the best spots for finding marine wildlife. We embarked for our 3-4 hour afternoon tour. Just after leaving the harbor we encountered our first Humpback whales! All in all we saw numerous sea lions, an otter cracking open a clam with it's favorite rock (a tool they keep with them in a flap under their arm), 20+ Humpback whale sightings which included feedings on bait balls of sardines and a few breaches, an enormous pod of common dolphins which swam along with the boat near the bow, the fin and tail of a blue shark, and we must've been hundreds of marine birds. We really lucked out. There was so much activity (mid-October) during our tour the hours felt like they flew by. There was no wind. The ocean was calm. The day was absolutely gorgeous. The crew really provided a great guest experience. My two kids were even given a chance to drive the boat! Thank you so much for a phenomenal day! I highly recommend Sanctuary Cruises and I definitely plan to return for another tour in the future!"
