FAQsWhat kind of whales can I expect to see?
During the winter migration season (typically December through April), you can expect to see magnificent gray whales. Other marine life like dolphins, sea lions, and various seabirds are also commonly sighted year-round.
What should I wear or bring on the cruise?
We recommend dressing in layers as it can be cooler on the water, even on warm days. Bring sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and comfortable shoes. Don't forget your camera to capture those unforgettable moments!
Is food and drink available on board?
Yes, light snacks, beverages, and a full bar are usually available for purchase on board, allowing you to enjoy refreshments during your cruise.
What if we don't see any whales?
While whale sightings are not guaranteed as they are wild animals, our experienced crew and naturalists do their best to find them. If whales are not sighted, you still enjoy a scenic cruise with opportunities to see other marine life and coastal views.
