The annual “Giant Blue Whale Migration” brings hundreds of blue whales each spring & summer to the waters off Newport Beach. Over 625 whales were viewed last summer2022 of which 140 were the giant blue whales. Along with viewing these giants view the second largest whale in the world, the finback whale which is often seen feeding in the same areas as the blue whales. Other whales encountered include humpback whales, and minke whales. Along with whales, giant pods of common and bottlenose dolphin are also very likely with pods numbering in the hundreds to over one thousand frequently viewed. These “mega” pods of dolphin are quite an amazing sight to witness with what seems like the whole ocean filled with jumping dolphin as far as you can see.Why is the whale watching so good off Newport Beach? Just outside of Newport Bay is the beginning of one of the largest marine protected areas in southern California created to protect this rich ecosystem for future generations. The protected marine sanctuary covers over 60 square miles off Newport & Laguna Beach and provides a haven for all marine creatures including whales and dolphin.Join Newport Landing’s whale watching cruises offered daily and view the largest creature on earth.Admission:$34-$46.50Special** $20 Cruise Rate Weekdays $24 Weekends- Please Add $10.50 Supplemental Charge To Cruise Times 10 am-5 pm daily.
