BEST WHALE WATCHING - EVER!!…read more From the moment we arrived the owners and staff were welcoming and friendly. John came over from a bench and talked at length about the fishing that takes place out of the harbor. Quentin was our Captain on the trip. The zodiac boat holds about 10 people and it was a fun bumpy ride up the coast. After about 20 minutes we began searching for whales. 10 minutes later we saw our first Pilot whales. Within minutes, Captain Q had maneuvered to within a 100 yards of the pod and killed the engine. The entire mass of whales slowly approached us and before long we were right in the middle of the pod! AMAZING, we had whales completely around us for over an hour! Some came right next to the boat, not even concerned that we were there. The ride back was much closer to the beautiful mountains and cliffs along this side of the island. We slowed down to see Seals and eagles. It was just the best experience for our family. Staff even watched our 5 mo. old Labradoodle while were were on the tour!

Best Experience of Cape Breton! Highly recommend Limbos Cove. More expensive than the other tours,…read morebut totally worth it. Great Service, friendly staff and captain. The Captain knew exactly where the pilot whales were and we got to just drift for over an hour and watch dozens of wales swim around the boat. We got to go out (about 8 of us) in the zodiac which, according to whale watching sites, is better for the whales then a bigger boat. The whole time, we were the only whale-watching boat in sight.

The weather was perfect, blue skies and a nice breeze. The crew of 3 was very friendly and they handled the boat with skill. They let us steer for a while in the quieter parts, they explained the basics of sailing, but we didn't have to worry about things when we wanted to sit back and enjoy the ride. We will be back!
