The trip was great! The price is super affordable and we get to see a lot of whales! The only downside is not being able to look at the whale closer, but that is because of the law.

It was an awesome day! I would do it again in a heartbeat. The only suggestion I would make is to make the stop in Friday Harbor just a little longer. Again, I would do this trip again in a heartbeat.
