Just off the nearby coast, we are lucky to be able to see such beautiful whales migrate to warmer waters down south. Whale watching begins December 2025 and continues until mid-April 2026. Experience the awe-inspiring migration of Pacific Gray Whales as they travel 6,000 to 10,000 miles between their breeding lagoons in Mexico and feeding grounds in the Bering Sea. Witness these majestic creatures as they pass through the Santa Barbara Channel on a scenic 3-hour cruise.
