    Three to four hours on the water — guaranteed whale sightings at Stellwagen Bank, a top marine preserve just 12 miles off Gloucester's coast.

    Incredible experience! The boat crew was excellent, and we spotted 8 whales, including a mother with her calf. It was absolutely worth the money.Joseph_I
