Whether you are a beginner or expert photographer, you are bound to pick up some new skills and tips on capturing stunning marine life imagery. For those who are not into photography, this is still an excellent trip to be out on the water during a beautiful time of day. You can sit back, relax, and watch the whales swim and breach under the setting Pacific sun while the photographers let their shutters fly! The sunrise photography tours running between April - May will be a good time to look for killer whales as they come into the bay to hunt migrating gray whales. We might also encounter humpback whales, blue whales, and multiple species of dolphins. From July - November, expect to see humpbacks, blues, and dolphins with good chances of killer whale sightings, especially in mid-September through October. There will also be opportunities to photograph sea otters, sea lions, and many bird species.

​

For the days where both a sunrise and sunset tour are scheduled on the same date, we will have a 2-hour break in the middle of the day to rest and grab lunch, before heading back out for sunset. These will be amazing days of wildlife opportunities where we hope to capture orcas at dawn and feeding humpbacks at dusk. Every day is different, so we never know what we will encounter!

So whatever your interests may be, we look forward to welcoming you aboard for an amazing whale watching experience!
