About This Tour

Your departure location provides for opportunities to see wildlife immediately. Many bird watchers that go with us are identifying sea birds while they wait at the top of the dock; before they even board. Before we leave the bay, there are ample opportunities to identify different Pinnipeds and sea birds. Unlike other whale watching tours, we are less than a mile from the ocean when we start; so we have chances to see whales very quickly.
