What are the important things to look for in a whale watching boat?
In order of importance:- Rail space, and decks where you can see all around the boat and especially ahead of the boat. Protection, if there is any wind or rain, being stuck on an exposed deck for 50 minutes on the trip back to the harbour is no fun. Size, the bigger the better, size means less movement in the ocean, greater comfort and facilities on board. Speed, you want to spend as much time as possible watching whales.
