Whale watching on the Oregon Coast is a popular and informative pastime. Twice a year a migration of Gray whales passes by our shores en route from Summer feeding grounds in Arctic seas to breeding grounds off Baja California. The Southward migration peaks between Christmas and New Years while the Northern migration occurs in mid to late March. Organized whale watching sponsored by Oregon State Parks and Recreation Department trains volunteers to staff whale watching sites to share this amazing sight with visitors from all over the world. A pod of Gray whales usually lingers off our coast during migration and is easily viewed from the beach. This is just one of the benefits of living on the coast. A common topic of discussion amongst locals is the sharing of whale sightings. If you’re ready to make whale sightings a regular part of your life — then give me a call!
