Bar Harbor vs. St.John/St. Andrew Whale Watch

Has anyone done either excursion through cruise line and have feedback.

Last time we did this itinerary I did one in Halifax and struck out :-( on sightings.

The other thing to consider is that it will be late in season, mid October, anyone have luck on either later in season.

Thanks.

At that time of year, even further south in New England, there are few whales left about.

Most of the northern east coast whale watches stop in mid-October.

So I am not an expert but I asked a question about these locations for a end of September trip and I was told my best bet would be further south down the coast...Bar Harbor, Boston, etc. Not Saint John or Halifax

I was wondering the same thing. Is there really very many whales left by Bar Harbor around September 22? I've seen whales in Alaska and would like to take the Holland America's tour but I don't want to waste money either.
