Long Beach Whale Watching
 
Has anybody ever been on a whale watch sponsored by Harbor Breeze's Whale Watching company (it is next to the Aquarium)? The website says this is the peak time to see the whales.
I will be in the area April 3-4; do you think I would be able to see any whales at that time? The site says that the migration season is through mid-April.

Its definitely peak season for whale watching here in LA. I was out today at this location:

I saw 8 grays in 3 hrs...25 total for the day. They will still be migrating through April. I am researching the boat trips at this time.

There was one recommended on this forum that I am searching for and I also learned of one out of Redondo Beach today that I am looking into so I will be following this post for more details.

Kerry,

Weather permitting, I am planning on trying Harbor Breeze this Wed. and will let you know.

Great Carla! I can't wait to hear your thoughts. I am looking forward to a whale watch but don't want to be disappointed.
Have fun!!

We had freaky weather here the past couple days (chilly & high winds) so I didn't make it out yesterday...today would be perfect but I have to work. I will let you know if I make it out before you get here. Between wildlife and weather, both can be unpredictable.
