Cape Cod Whale Watching Tours

Experience the awe of seeing whales up close in their natural habitat with a private whale watching tour in Cape Cod.

Cape Cod is one of the most iconic whale watching destinations in the Northeast. Each season, nutrient-rich waters attract a variety of whale species as they feed, travel, and breach just offshore.

Our whale watching trips are designed for guests who want to experience Cape Cod’s marine wildlife without fishing. Whether you are visiting the area or a local looking for a memorable day on the water, these trips offer an unforgettable connection to the ocean.

Charter fishing is a not only a hobby, it’s a way of life here on Cape Cod. Once you  leave the dock you are in a completely different world. For a highly personalized experience, for beginners or experienced anglers, the captain will outfit you with the proper equipment and teach you how to read the water for signs of striped bass, bluefish, tuna, and even sharks.
