Ingonish Whale Watching Tours

Beautiful tour. There is no guarantee that you come across any whales but the ride itself is really enjoyable and you can get to see seals and giant tortoises. If you are there with any friends, you will love it for sure. Totally worth the money.

We really enjoyed the whole tour. We did see a few smaller whales, a few porpoise, seals, gannets and a bald eagle. We had a rare experience of a porpoise following the boat and putting on a bit of a show. Watching the gannets dive for herring was amazing.

I’ve been on whale watching tours with no whales in sight and had an amazing time. This tour was a slow boat ride along the shore with a crew who was not interested in anything other than putting in the time. Our teenager was so bored he fell asleep. I would look elsewhere if you want a fun afternoon.

We took the zodiac out on a tour around the coast.We went out to Ingonish Island and circled around it, getting a great look at the houses on the island.The boys took us over beyond the keltic lodge and we saw some seals and an eagle.The water was calm & the weather was pristine.Great experience.

The Ingonish Whale Watching Tour was a pleasant experience for what it is.This is a true and honest review for what it is. The price is more than fair to see the views, bald eagles, and seals. The cliffs along Cape Breton Highlands are stunning.The boat- as a Zodiac they are not meant to be comfortable but being able to switch positions and put feet in various positions make it comfortable.The crew- genuinely nice and was able to answer questions pertaining to local restaurants, and things to do.The length of two hours and cost of roughly 50 dollar makes it for a solid experience overall. While one could assume to see whales from the company name, whales won’t always be in the area which should be expected.Anyone giving these guys a negative review should drop expectations, and appreciate it the tour for what it is as a small mom and pop shop enterprise.

The view was nice But didn’t see any whales at this time of the yearPlus the heat was so high Instead of enjoying we were all just sweating and then fell asleepNot worth 50 bucksWe were just shown an eagle nest and a seal

We saw an eagles nest and 3 seals head far away in water. We couldn't see any whales. The captain who took us seems to be less experienced as we hit some fish on the surface of the water with a big thud sound. There seems to be no system on the boat to track the whales or fish in the ocean. We were very excited to see whales but couldn't see anything. I hope when they take us to see whales, they have proper systems in place to track them and show the tourists for what they paid for. The view from boat was good though. The view of land for the 2 hrs was good.

Family owned and operated! They were very accommodating to my pregnant wife ensuring that the waters were safe for travel before departure. Although we did not see a whale(they could be anywhere) we were able to see baby eagles, seals and even a shark! Definitely had a great time and recommend!

Amazing experience! Nice guys, definitely recommend. Due to the high wind, we couldn't go far and we got refunded. But we got to see a bald eagle. It would have been worth watching whales on that cool boat.
