What a great experience! We went one of the last days of the season, knowing we likely wouldn't see…read morepuffins because they had migrated early. We didn't see any, but that was ok because it was still a great experience. The boat has some cover and it was comfortable. Donelda narrated and told us about what we could expect and some history of the area on our way to the islands. The journey itself was beautiful. A major highlight for us was getting to see bald eagles up close (right next to the boat) as she feeds them on the way. The tour could've been about bald eagles and I would've been happy! We saw lots of different types of birds, bald eagles of different ages, and seals! Lots and lots of seals. We also got to see the puffin breeding grounds and learned about them. That just made us want to come back and do it again in the future. Originally we didn't have enough people to take off (need 10, we had 9). Not everyone had shown up. However, someone asked if we could pay for the extra ticket and we happily split it with them. I suggest bringing cash, the credit machine was down. I was able to pay via PayPal but cash would've been easier I think.

Best boat trip ever! We saw puffins, seals, bald eagles, cormorants, mini penguins and lots of…read moreother bird species. Worth the money completely. There was also great veiws of mountains and cliff's. Best part of our trip to Canada from NC. We would do it again! Thanks for the great boat tour!

A boat maintenance facility open year-round, located on the Bras d'Or Lakes of Cape Breton Island…read more They provide haulout, launch services, and mooring (including water taxi), fuel and pump out, showers and laundry. Also a provide maintenance (including computerized engine diagnostics). The store carries charts, tools, parts and accessories, and clothing and flags. I bought a very nice all weather Nova Scotia flag that I will hang up at home as a souvenir of my visit.

If you need to buy parts for your Yanmar diesel engine you would be better off going elsewhere…read more I had a leaky water pump that I had to replace. Since I would be sailing past Baddeck Marine within a week or so, I called to place an order for the pump. The person who answered took my information and phone number and told me the person who handles parts would call me back. After two days with no call back, I called again with all the same information and was given the same response. This cycle was repeated over ten days or so until, due to schedule restraints, I had sailed past Baddeck and on to North Sydney (37 miles away by car). In North Sydney I finally got a reply, placed an order and was promised delivery... within 5 days. (I learned after the fact that the price for the pump from Baddeck Marine was about $100 more than the on-line price). Delivery occurred as promised, and I was ultimately only delayed one day. However, when I got my credit card bill, there was an additional charge of $79 that I never agreed to and that I assume was for delivery of the pump. This is an outrageous charge for a circumstance that developed only because of Baddeck Marine's repeated failure to accept my order in a timely fashion.
