We went on a whale watching tour with Captain Rich today. To say it was an amazing experience is an understatement. With his expert boating skills and knowledge of where the whales may be, he guided his boat through some rather windy conditions like a consumate professional and nature didn't disappoint. Seeing those majestic creatures up close was so awesome! Thank you Captain Rich for such a fabulous morning!



One of the best chartering experiences I've ever been on! Going on this trip before the heavy tourism was such a treat. We saw a humpback whale bubble feeding, a minke whale, a LARGE pod of common dolphins, and some seals! I would absolutely recommend this. 😉



Captain Rich and his 1st mate were awesome! This is our second trip with him! A bit early this season for stripers yet he was able to get us on to some beasts! Great time had by all. Last year it was non stop with stripers! Fantastic boat, crew and trip! Highly recommend!



We drove for 4 hours to Provincetown for our pre-booked 2.00 tour, and when we arrived, we were told it had been cancelled due to high winds!
They said they sent an email at 9.30, but who reads emails whilst driving!
We drove to Sands Beach, where we were told you can occasionally see whales but did not see any. However, we did see a relatively calm sea (see pictures)
Later, we saw that other boats had actually gone out from different harbours around Boston, and this made us believe the trip was cancelled due to lack of bookings rather than the weather, as surely all companies listen to the same shipping forecasts
So poor communication and very unhappy customers.

What an epic adventure. Care and consideration given to these wonderful mammals. Would 100% recommend this trip. We were staying in Boston and drove round to Ptown and so glad we did. Fantastic information shared and time taken to find and tell us how to find what we were looking for.




I had family visiting from out of the country and I’m glad I booked a private whale watching tour with Beth Ann Charters. Very happy with the entire experience, it was unforgettable. The captain was so informative and kind. He helped teach my brother how to catch a fish and even gutted it for us. So worth the experience and would highly recommend to anyone thinking of building special memories with their loved ones.





Took a 9/1/23 Dolphin Whale Watch tour, departing noon out of Provincetown, MA. Our multi-generational family group of 8 enjoyed viewing 12-15 distinct whales, including mother-calf pairs, a breach, and amazing close encounters with whales boat-side. Our naturalist narrated the journey, providing background and details about the whales we encountered, and our skillful crew navigated 2'-4' seas to get us quickly to prime whale viewing areas. Dolphin Fleet found the whales first; other company boats all joined the party later. Our family has been visiting the Cape for decades and has been on several whale watches. Dolphin Fleet did not disappoint. Highly recommend!!








I would highly recommend going on this whale watch, for the captain knows exactly how to find the whales and the naturalists are very informative and teach you a lot. On my most recent trip we saw many whales including a playful baby, whales eating, and several whales breaching. To top off the wonderful experience, we had a rainbow appear as we were coming into the dock. Truly an experience of a lifetime that is not to be missed, especially if you enjoy nature.





Best experience and highlight of our trip. We had 28-35 whale sightings. We saw humpback and then got to see a minke whale; which is rarely seen. Check out their Facebook page for much better pictures!!






Absolutely amazing charter!!!! Captain Richard was fantastic. The Beth Ann had everything that we needed to be comfortable while offering us 360 degree views of the most spectacular whale sightings!!

Couldn't have asked for a better morning on the water! There must have been at least 15 whales feeding on our watch. Such a great experience!




Absolutely amazing experience!! We chose SeaSalt Charters because they are dog friendly, and they really are - our pup was so welcome!! But even if you don't have dogs, we highly recommend taking this tour. Booking was smooth, upfront questions were promptly answered over email, and when we had to reschedule due to high winds, SeaSalt Charters went out of their way to accommodate us. Of course the trip itself was unforgettable! Captain Jesse was very knowledgeable and respectful of the whales and seals, and we felt safe and comfortable. The small boat makes for an intimate experience, we really loved being so close to the ocean and the whales - and we saw a lot more than expected!


We had the best time on the Bethie! The 2.5 hr fishing trip was perfect for myself and my fiance! He has some fishing experience and I have absolutely none, and we both had a blast and caught lots of fish!! Rhys was great and answered all of my questions. Such a fun unique experience, we will be back!








This was one of the best parts of our Cape Cod vacation! Well worth every penny. We saw 16-20 whales on our 2pm cruise. I can't recommend this enough! The humpback whales were playful and majestic as they dove and swam and fin slapped and tail lobbed... it was really incredible. Perfect for families. The boat is plenty big and every seat was a good one. 3 hour tour. Will definitely do this one again.






Hands down one of the best experiences we have ever had!! The day was beautiful, water was relatively calm. We got to see so many whales as well as seals this morning on our ride. Our Capt Dave was very knowledgeable of each whale species. He made sure to get us close enough to get a good view without disturbing the animal. Our family gives this charter a 15/10!!! We would definitely book again. Private charter is the way to go for your whale watching. Our family of 5 were all able to enjoy the beauty of the whales from every angle without having to fight other people for a spot to see. Definitely worth every penny!!



Excellent experience today! We saw so many whales and even a few breaches! I’ve been on a couple other large boats but due to sea sickness wanted to try a smaller boat and it was such a pleasant experience. No sea sickness, it feels great to be closer to the water and closer to the whales! David was awesome!

We would have easily purchased the whale tour on the big boat but seeing this small boat private charter, we decided to splurge.
Best “splurge” Ever. 100% worth spending the extra dollars to NOT be on a big crowded boat that cannot maneuver.
Captain Chad is 3rd generation- knows and has even been one to name many of the whales. We were up close and personal and this tour will be what we remember our trip to Cape Cod by. 10/10. See company IG page. Accurate and stunning.

This was an awesome addition to our trip and l highly recommend it! Excellent views, super clean boat with nice bathrooms, and a very friendly crew. Food and drink available, cash only. Bring your wind breaker. They do a great job commentating and explaining things on the way there. It was so amazing to see the whales this close. Truly a memorable experience!





This trip was soooo special. We weren't expecting to see so many whales and dolphins. The boat was clean with refreshment and restroom facilities. Staff were knowledgeable about whales and marine life with fully informative announcements throughout the trip. Well worth the money. One of the biggest highlights of our holiday.



We had the best time on two charters. We were lucky enough to have a great time with both Captain Chad and Captain Jesse. They were kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Both made sure to include our groups specific interests (birds, etc) on our trips. Thanks for an amazing time, we can’t wait to return.














I travelled just over 1200 miles to celebrate my 40th birthday and see whales in their natural habitat of the Stellwagen Bank. After a miserable experience on a typical tourist style whale watch tour with over 100+ people, we woke up the next morning and made a last minute decision to call and schedule with Beth Ann Charters. We were lucky to fit into their schedule and truly thankful they made it happen! Cpt. Rhys and his First Mate Zach did not disappoint. For two of the youngest we have ever been chartered by, they were definitely professional, entertaining, and good at what they do! Unfortunately, it was not a day for seeing any Humpback whales, but Rhys and Zach found us plenty of Minke whales to watch during the duration of our outing and even a few Grey seals. The boat ride was smooth, the open ocean was beautiful, and the peaceful and relaxing setting was exactly what we were looking for. It was an experience I won't soon forget and am thankful to have had the opportunity to spend my day with such a great team!




This was an awesome experience! We wanted to book a whale watch but didn't want to book one with a bunch of people. We ended up finding the kids charter and thought it would be perfect. It was a private charter and we wouldn't have to worry about a bunch of people. It was an amazing experience. Will definitely go back. Reese was a great mate and my daughter absolutely loved him. I was nervous about being a 5 year old on a boat but the captain and mate made us feel safe and comfortable the whole time. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other private charters!









Incredible experience. We saw twelve humpback whales and a fin whale during a 3-hour evening charter with captain Jessy.
He took us to the ocean nearby - in safe distance - to many whales, was friendly, knowledgeable and even knew the names and personal history of most whales. He also took out trash we saw out of the ocean so it won’t harm sea animals. Highly recommended!

By far...the best chartered trip I ever took. Captain Chad was great! We saw more whales then we thought! Can't wait to come back next year
