Cape Ann Whale Watch

Since 1979, the whale-watching pioneers of Cape Ann Whale Watch have escorted more than three-quarters of a million spectators fascinated by the ocean's magnificent leviathans on three to four-hour treks 15 off the coast of Gloucester Ma. Earning them a spot on the Top 5 American Whale Watching Tours by Joshua Horwitz, author of War of the Whales. The mighty 115 ft. Hurricane II, the largest and fastest vessel north of Boston (which can reach speeds of to 30 knots) whisks you to the whale grounds sometimes within an hour from the dock. Once there you’ll observe the natural grace of nature's gentle giants feed and frolic just feet from the boat. Naturalists from the World Cetacean Alliance narrate all trips, illuminating each of the dwellers by discussing why whales breach, how to recognize individual humpbacks, and their various feeding styles.
