SAN DIEGO WHALE WATCHING
An Unforgettable Ocean Adventure
San Diego Whale Watching
San Diego offers some of the best whale watching opportunities in the world. The whale watching season traditionally runs from mid-December through April, but thanks to the unique migration patterns of gray and blue whales, San Diego is a prime location for year-round whale watching.
From mid-December through April, you’ll have the chance to witness the incredible migration of California gray whales, while blue whales make their appearance from mid-June through September. The majestic blue whale calves will even be seen swimming alongside their mothers on their return migration in the spring. Beyond these two species, orcas, minke whales, and fin whales can be spotted throughout the year.
Our whale watching tours are designed for groups of all sizes. Whether you prefer the intimate experience on our 60’ Hatteras for up to 13 passengers or the spacious 60’ Catamaran, which can accommodate up to 48 passengers, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable adventure on the water.
Book your whale watching tour with us today, and prepare for an awe-inspiring experience along the stunning San Diego coastline!
