Guided Whale Tour with Otters and Sea Lions

CARPOOL LINK

CARPOOL POLICY 

 

Tis the season people!!! Time to see sea lions and otters on the guided whale watching tour. Just off the coast of Moss Landing lies the Monterrey Bay Submarine Canyon, over a mile deep. The nutrient rich waters support a huge variety of fish, birds and marine mammals. 

We will paddle out of Moss Landing Harbor and head into the open ocean waters. Depending on the fog will determine how far out we will head out, there is not a guarantee to see whales however that is a possibility. Do note that the there is a possibility to have rocky waters which can cause for sea sickness.

We are ONLY renting DOUBLE kayaks, NO SINGLES. ($60, Pay upon arrival

No prior kayak skills are necessary, though in case of emergency, basic swimming skills are required.

Please note that to park at the dry dock it will cost $7 (cash) to park, there is a form that would will need to fill out within the lot.
