The most common whales sighted on our whale watching adventures are the majestic 45-ft long Pacific grey whales. At times, we also see the enormous blue whales, which can reach up to 100 ft in length and are the largest animals on the planet. On most of our whale watching trips, we see common, risso and bottlenose dolphins, California sea lions, harbor seals, and other marine life. Occasionally, we are even lucky enough to spot orcas, humpback whales, minke, and pilot whales.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243;

On their way south, they pass by the Channel Islands, about 26 miles off the Santa Barbara coast. Beginning mid-February, as they make their way north again, the mothers and calves stay close to the Santa Barbara coastline, just a few hundred yards off shore.
