    Despite a small issue with the meeting point, this turned out to be one of the best days of my life! The captains were incredibly friendly, and the boat was new, clean, and comfortable. With only six guests maximum, everyone had an amazing view and plenty of space to enjoy the whales. It was also great value for the price. If you’re visiting Icy Strait Point, Hoonah Matata should definitely be on your list!
