Two worlds collide as a Blue Whale mother and her calf spend an afternoon with some playful Bottlenose Dolphins in San Diego. (Summer 2023) In a world where the future of all wildlife seems less certain by the day, we must find a way to make people embrace the parts of nature that remain. For me personally, no moment changed my outlook on life quite like the first time I witnessed a Blue Whale in person. For that reason I made Blue Whales our number 1 priority species for @gonewhalewatching in San Diego. Every summer these whales are somewhere off of our coast, and I didn’t want to limit our guests’ chances of seeing them by only relying on what could be found in the first 20 miles or so from shore. Blue Whales go wherever the most food is, and sometimes that can be less than a mile offshore, but other years that can be 50 or more miles from harbor. For that reason we invented our “Extended Blue Whale Tours” which have no time or distance constraints. These special extended trips have had remarkable and consistent success since 2020, boasting a 98% success rate in spotting Blue Whales. Nowhere else in California has had this level of consistent Blue Whale sightings. Through tireless effort and exploration, we have tapped into Blue Whale hotspots that other whale watching tours would never consider, including some locations where we’ve seen aggregations of more than 100 whales! The typical season runs mid to late May through July(sometimes longer), with variable timing peaks year to year. Spots are incredibly limited, and all of our first batch of weekend extended trip dates in June are sold out! June does tend to be the most reliable month for whales closer to the harbor, but every year is different. 2024 saw remarkable numbers close to San Diego every day May 7th through mid June, 2023 saw all of June act as a “peak”, and 2022 had two prominent peaks in June and August(!). If you’re thinking about booking one of our Extended Blue Whales tours for 2025, our best advice would be to please not wait! We added a few more dates in June and July, so don’t delay to ensure your spots to connect with the largest animal to ever live!

Watching whales is such a deeply emotional thing for me, for some reason. I am blown away by their majesty, their grace, their intelligence, their beautiful way of being. And the next minute, i’m sobbing thinking about how we misunderstand and harm these amazing beings 😢
