WHALE WATCHING CRUISES Gray Whale Season is here! We are still seeing Blue Whales and are expecting to see the first Gray Whale of the season any day now! The Gray Whale Migration runs from November - April. Each winter, the Pacific Gray Whales pass by Dana Point, many believe that Dana Point is a landmark on their journey. After spending the summer feeding in the food-rich waters of the arctic, the Grays swim south along the coast to the bays of Baja California, where they mate and nurse their young. Along the way they pass Dana Wharf, where you can witness the annual winter journey. We saw 371 Gray Whales last season! Check availability and buy tickets: Daily Gray Whale
