For some of the best whale-watching opportunities in the world, look no further than the waters around the port city of Santa Barbara. Step aboard a state-of-the-art, high-speed catamaran for a full-day guided whale-watching expedition.
Watch from within the luxurious, teak-paneled cabin equipped with large, tinted windows -- perfect for optimal wildlife viewing. Or, take your place on a viewing platform on the bow or top deck, basking in the sun and sea breeze. Cruise among the breathtaking Channel Islands -- a small archipelago teeming with wildlife. Cormorants, gulls, pelicans, sea lions, harbor seals, and dolphins make their home here.
Time and weather permitting, you will step inside the Painted Cave to view its colorful pictographs. It is one of the largest and deepest sea caves in the world.
Keep a keen eye out for magnificent gray, blue, humpback and even orca whales. They are often seen spouting and breaching in the glistening waters of this migratory corridor of the Pacific Ocean.
Notes:
Dress in layers; it can be cooler on the water. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
