Whale Watching in San Juan Islands

Are you looking for a unique adventure in the Pacific Northwest? Embark on a whale-watching tour through the scenic San Juan Islands May through September.

The Salish Sea is home to various whale species, including Bigg’s (Transient) Killer Whales, Southern Resident Orca Whales, Minke Whales, Humpback Whales, Gray Whales, and Dall’s Porpoises. Bigg’s Killer Whales, known for their hunting of seals and sea lions, and the Southern Resident Orcas, with their unique matriarchal societies and diet of salmon and other fish, are particularly notable. Other species like the Minke, Humpback, and Gray Whales are recognized for their impressive sizes and behaviors, contributing to the area’s rich biodiversity and making it a prime location for whale watching.
