An Intimate & Immersive Adventure at Sea

Onboard our pristine Catamaran Yachts, our always low passenger capacity ensures an intimate experience at sea. With only 37 guests max on Catallac and 48 guests max on Legacy, you’ll enjoy comfort, space, and unmatched access to the wild. Our luxury whale watching cruises are designed to offer the perfect balance of nautical elegance and spacious viewing areas, giving you and your family up-close encounters with incredible marine life.

360° Viewing & Dual Bows

360-degree walkaround deck for unobstructed views from any angle.
Dual bow design lets you gaze straight down at bow-riding dolphins gliding just beneath your feet.
Spacious open-air seating combined with cozy vantage points ensures you’ll never miss a moment.

World-Class Marine Life Encounters

Experience the thrill of seeing:

Giant Blue Whales, Humpback Whales, and other large baleen whales.
Mega pods of dolphins, often in the hundreds or even thousands.
Seasonal migrations, acrobatics, and breathtaking wildlife behavior, all just offshore from Newport Beach.

Thanks to the greater speed of our catamarans, we can cover a 10+ mile radius — nearly 100 square miles of ocean — in a single trip. That means less time traveling and more time watching whales and dolphins.

Our Crew: Passionate Experts

The heart of our success lies in our incredible staff. Join Captain Dani, Captain Kayla, and Naturalist Jill, whose decades of combined knowledge of marine mammals make every trip educational, enriching, and inspiring. Their passion is contagious, and they are committed to offering a responsible, sustainable whale watching experience.
