You can tell they really wanted us to see as much as could so they chartered all over the waters and we saw 6 whales. They knew so much about all the whales and taught us a lot of facts. In addition, the cost is very reasonable. I cannot recommend this experience enough!

We took two sails across our extended family and everyone had a fantastic time from teens to toddlers and the adults too. They kept everyone safe while also allowing even the youngest "crew" to have turns sailing. They were happy to share info about sailing and Gloucester or just let everyone relax and chat on our own. Their 36' Catalina is a perfect cruising boat- lots of space to sit for up to 6 guests and a cabin with a "head" (restroom) just in case. We will definitely be back soon for more sails!

During the fight I felt alive, more alive than I have felt in sometime. My oldest Son was with me who is off to college in a few weeks so this was a great moment for us. The Tuna broke the line and swam away, we all looked at each other & the Captain exclaimed "That's Tuna Fishing",I thought, that's life! My group of 4 had a great time, the boat is very clean & comfortable, including a clean bathroom & eating area. They even cooked on the grill for us. Captain Steve Zelk & First Mate Erick Zelk were awesome, they were fun and super entertaining! There are other captains as well but we got these guys Luckily!! Highly Recommended!

New Years Eve Cruise 2024…read more Nothing better than sailing into the new year on aboard the NYE Cruise on the Beauport Cruiseline. An absolute treat of a crowd, an extremely charismatic & charming MC/DJ with a hell of a singing voice that you just could not get enough of. This wonderful cruise also featured delectable hors d'oevres, a delightful Mac & Cheese Martini Bar, a feast of Chinese Food & of course a sparkling Champagne Toast to cheers the new year.

I've been fishing for over 20 years with different crews in New York, Maine, and Rhode Island, and for the most part, I've always had good experiences. Unfortunately, this trip was one of the worst I've ever had. I understand fishing can be hit or miss, and a slow day on the water happens as that's part of the sport. What bothered me was the behavior of one of the staff members, a woman named Kelly who was working in the cabin. She was extremely rude to some folks on board, even yelling at someone about what to do with their catch and going after them outside. Then, as she walked back inside, she loudly said, "What the F###... Those Arabs," and continued mouthing off here and there. This was in front of families and children. I don't tolerate profiling or that kind of unprofessional behavior. It ruined the trip for me, and I won't be fishing with this company again.
