Seattle: Wildlife and Whale Watching Cruise

Before you book

Boards at Pier 69 on the downtown Seattle waterfront, so no drive is needed: walk down the breezeway to the ticket office, exchange your voucher at the counter and arrive 45 minutes before departure.
Food and drink are not included but are sold on board, and binoculars can be rented. The cruise runs 3 to 5 hours, depending on where the whales are.
The listing's guarantee: “You'll be offered a free trip if whale sightings do not occur.” It covers any whale, not orcas only, and is worded as a free trip rather than a refund.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. The listing does not say what happens if the operator cancels for weather, and it states no operating season, so check winter dates on the calendar.

About This Experience

Clipper Vacations' cruise boards at Pier 69 on the downtown Seattle waterfront, no drive needed, and spends 3 to 5 hours searching the Salish Sea for whales with a naturalist on board.

The sections below quote the operator's own listing. Where it says "we" or "us", that is the operator, so send questions such as dietary needs to them through your booking.
