Embark on a whale-watching tour in Monterey Bay. Join a marine biologist or naturalist and learn more about the whales and other marine species in the area.
Discover a variety of whale species in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary on this unforgettable cruise from Monterey. Renowned for its deep submarine canyon close to shore, Monterey Bay is one of the world’s top whale-watching destinations. With whales spotted almost daily, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Depart from the Old Fisherman’s Wharf, where you can catch a glimpse of hundreds of Californian sea lions inside the harbor as the boat leaves the dock. Take advantage of the view and snap a photo to capture the memory.
As you pass the historic Cannery Row, you’ll enter the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Keep your eyes peeled for feeding humpback whales, various dolphin species, porpoises, blue whales, and fin whales.
Enjoy the onboard biologist’s fascinating insights into the bay’s marine life and conservation efforts. During the summer and fall, the tour focuses on feeding whales that come to feast on small fish and krill. While humpback whales are spotted daily, you might also see blue whales, fin whales, gray whales, orcas, and diverse dolphin species.
In the winter, the tour shifts to the south end of Monterey Bay to follow migrating whales, including gray whales. This cruise offers an incredible chance to witness the majesty of these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.
