I've done many whale watches, and this is a great one! Nice big boat with plenty of seating and a bar area with cocktails, beer, drinks, and food. The naturalist was great and learned a few things I didn't already know! We saw many whales and it was a fantastic day!!

We saw a mom & her calf. It was wonderful. The staff was knowledgeable. The boat wasn’t crowded so we were all able to see the whales’ behaviors. Worth the time and money for sure. I would (& have) recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area!

We went yesterday and had a great time. We got to see Momma and baby humpback whales and pod of Harbor Porpoises. The whales suprised us and came super close to the boat for a brief moment. The only thing I wish was better was the quality and loudness of the speakers. We were on lower deck and between the sound of the motor, ocean and people we couldnt make out any of the facts and info on whales or other wildlife we saw. I would definately go again.

Fantastic experience!!! My husband and I were camping at the Salisbury Beach State Campground and decided to take advantage of a Groupon for this experience. We had a wonderful time! The crew was wonderful and well-informed as to where the whales would be feeding. To our delight, we were joined by a female humpback and her calf, who she was teaching how to search for schools of fish. We will definitely go again and we even bought T-shirts for a souvenir. What a great afternoon. The trip was 4 hours, and the scenery along the way was beautiful. The whales are a lot faster than you would think, so keep your camera handy!

Was a great time out on the water. We enjoyed all our time out there, and the whales didn't disappoint! I do wish I had known we could bring our own food on board (just no alcohol) would have made it even better. I'm not sure why this isn't mentioned anywhere on the website that I saw, but lots of people had been before and brought coolers with them.

This was my first whale watch excursion and I couldn't have asked for more! The staff was extremely friendly and informative! I learned so much about whales and especially humpback. We saw at least 6 different humpback including 2 Mama's with their calves. The boat was clean, with plenty if room and it was easy to move from side to side to get the best views. It was AMAZING!

Wow! I was more than impressed. 1. Don't forget to tip the crew. They provide more than a service, they are also super knowledgeable and hospitable. Extremely friendly. We were a little nervous about some fog offshore and we did encounter it, but then it just improved and we saw two humpback whales for quite a while! It was a great trip and I would not only recommend it but next time I'm in New England I will go back.

My husband and I love Newburyport Whale Watch. We've been coming every year for the past 3 years. The tickets are reasonably priced (check Groupon), easy nearby parking, professional company. Not to mention we've always had a great showing from the whales!!!
