Whale Watching Tours
michaeldrennie asked:
I am interested in taking a whale watching tour at the end of January ‘09 in the Monterey area. The websites I visited say that it will be gray whale season and that humpback and blue whale season will have past. Are gray whale as interesting to go see as humpbacks and blues, or should I save my money till later in the year? Can anyone recommend a tour company? Thanks.

Personally, I feel gray whales are more curious…and as for size…you will be just as impressed with the size of these creatures are you certainly would be with humpbacks and blue whales (the largest).
If you have never experienced this before–why wait? Whales are fascinating whatever their species! You will remember the experience.
…And, you will have–and appreciate more–your next upcoming adventure with the Humpbacks and blues:-)

Gray Whales are great to watch.
Go for it.

Also less expensive is watching the elephant seals – which you can just drive to and watch along the beaches. The whale tours many people get boat sick or very cold! It’s also hard to see the whales many time in the water or spot them! Better to watch them in Hawaii in Maui where you can rent a house right on the water and watch them play around! Or go to Baha Mexico where the water is clearer and the whales are more protected in the Bay.

Gray whale is great. You can go and have such a tour. Have you heard about Tours4fun? They are a good online tour provider. I always booked tour from their site. It’s quite easy booking tour from them. You just need to log in their website.
