The Dolphin Fleet offers a full refund if you don’t see a whale but during my 14 plus years of inn keeping, I never heard of a refund. Will we always see whale? Sightings are very reliable all season long as there are so many whales to see as they gather around the Stellwagon Bank to feed.It’s easy to get burned during your 4 + hour trip when you are out in the sun watching the whales- time flies by. Sunscreen is very important along with a sun hat. What should I bring for my whale watching tour? We always tell our guests to bring layers of clothing since it may be colder on the water, sunscreen, water, sunglasses and snacks if you don’t want to purchase food from the boat snack bar.It’s no wonder they are leaping for joy when they reach Cape Cod:) During the winter months they travel south but do not eat anything all winter. Interesting fact- the whales come to feed on the Stellwagon Bank which is loaded with plankton, their major food.
During the summer months, the Humpbacks are here, along with Finbacks, Minkes, and their colorful “cousins” the Atlantic White-sided dolphin.
