Capt. Bill and Sons Whale Watch are proud to offer the best package for students anywhere! Students will learn about the biology and conservation of whales and other marine mammals. Before we set sail, they become part of a research team with a ten minute introduction to whales. Careful instructions are given in the ”spotting techniques” for particular species by our scientists, naturalists, from The Whale Center of New England. Whale Watching has become the highlight of many educational field trips. For pricing and booking information please call 1-800-339-4253 or email.
