| Gray Whale Watch Tour Cruises start March 6th Gray whales migrate over 5,000 miles from Baja California to the Bering and Chukchi Seas each year in search of food.

Stellar sea lions, sea otters, Dall’s porpoises, harbor seals, bald eagles, and many types of seabirds. Tours are fully narrated by experienced captains and naturalist crew members.
