Loved this experience we saw two baby whales- breathtaking.
One of the baby calves was under a week old! It was absolutely magical the seats were comfortable and the speaker was very informative they really knew some interesting facts, my 3 year old was thrilled, my one year old not so much but the indoors helped keep him entertained in a booth seating without worry.
