Well, Well, It’s a Whale of a Celebration

Published on: January 02, 2019

If you follow one of Southern California’s premier whale-centric organizations, Cabrillo Marine Aquarium, the experts there proclaimed, “Whale watch season begins December 26th and runs through mid-April. Don’t miss your chance to see the Pacific gray whale! All boats include a trained naturalist from Cabrillo Whalewatch, a joint effort of the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium and American Cetacean Society Los Angeles Chapter.”

Who’s going to argue with that? Lots of whale watch tour operators, of course, who offer trips year-round to see whales off the California coast. It’s all a matter of perspective and one thing’s for certain — there is no shortage of enthusiasm for something as huge as whales and their migrations.

Get on board this year and make this your personal story, whether you simply study the migrations, attend a whale festival or event, or take a Pacific Ocean trip. While most can handle the ocean currents and unexpected turbulence, if you feel a little queasy about the prospects of getting sick in a boat, there are plenty of fantastic whale watching vistas on the California coast.
