Summer Whale Watching Cruises
Saturday mornings at 8 AM
TICKETS

The Monterey Bay is currently experiencing some of the most frequent humpback whale activity of the year, and they have been continously spotted just off the Santa Cruz coastline. Though OYC sees many whales during our regular weekend sails, we're bringing you a extended sailing experience so we can take you further onto the bay to spot these summer whales. 

What's Included:

Sailing aboard the 65' Team O’Neill Catamaran is a fantastic way to celebrate the ocean and to view the beautiful Santa Cruz coastline from afar. It’s a great activity for locals and visitors alike. The time length is just right for a pleasant afternoon activity, with plenty of time left over to stroll the harbor, play on the beach or visit one of the local restaurants.
