Experience an up-close and personal connection with huge herds of year-round wild dolphins, whales, sea lions, and much more aboard a memorable whale-watching excursion!
You deserve the best, so bring your family and friends to Dana Point, California, the Dolphin and Whale Watching Capital of the World® and the first Whale Heritage Site in the Americas. This cruise features uncrowded and eco-friendly vessels with exclusive features such as two eye-to-eye underwater view pods. In the 'pods,' you will feel what it's like to swim with dolphins and whales underwater, without getting wet!
At Dana Point Harbor, next to Baby Beach and the OC Sailing and Events Center, you'll board a unique catamaran to spot whales, dolphins, sea lions, marine birds, sharks, and more. Some of the year-round whales you might see on your journey include blue whales, gray whales, humpback whales, fin whales, and minke whales. There are five species of wild dolphins that might cross your path, too. You could see rare animals such as orcas.
Live narration from entertaining and knowledgeable marine naturalists will bring you on a deeper dive into the lives of Dana Point's gentle giants; what they do, where they go, and the threats, both natural and man-made, that they face.
And at the end of your experience, you'll disembark with a greater understanding of Dana Point's awe-inspiring marine life. As a special 'thank you' you'll receive a complimentary sweet treat of a delicious triple fudge brownie.
