The annual "Giant Blue Whale Migration" brings hundreds of blue whales each spring/summer to the waters off the Southern California coast. Over +30 whales have been viewed in 2023.

Giant blue whales were once considered quite rare off Southern California, but over the last 9 years this has changed dramatically with hundreds of giant blue whales spotted each year. These giants of the sea reach lengths of up to 90 feet and are the largest of all animals. Along with viewing these giants, the second largest whale in the world, the finback whale has also taken to the waters of Southern California during the same months as the blue whales. Giant pods of common and bottlenose dolphin are also very common with pods numbering a thousand of more dolphins quite likely. These dolphin pods come within arms reach as they play alongside the whale watching ship. Viewings are so good that there is a 96% viewing success rate and if nothing is viewed a free pass for another whale watching cruise is offered.
