Photographers Rejoice on this all day Whale Watching Cruise
See a variety of whale species including blue whales, humpback whales, and the possibility of seeing killer whales.
Monterey Bay Whale Watch features all day whale watching trips on selected days throughout the year, enabling you to experience the whales of the Monterey Bay in their respective seasons.
Just offshore of Monterey, California lies a 6000-foot deep submarine canyon running right down the middle of the Monterey Bay. Similar in size to the Grand Canyon of the American Southwest, this geologic feature creates cold-water upwellings, rich in nutrients that foster a remarkable diversity of seabirds and cetaceans. The combination of these elements within a semi-protected bay makes Monterey a worldwide destination for whale watching.
To provide quality viewing of wildlife, we do not fill the boat to maximum capacity for these trips.
A variety of snack foods and drinks will be available. However, you should bring a lunch and any other food you want. Please be prepared for any type of weather while out on the water.
Although these trips concentrate on whales, we may also see seabirds, dolphins, sea otters and other marine life. The trips also offer spectacular views of California’s Central Coast.
Sea conditions can be variable; seasickness medicine (Bonine or Dramamine 2) is highly recommended in case we encounter rough seas.
Join us on a pelagic trip to observe the variety of wildlife around Monterey Bay.
