About Langley Whale Center

The Langley Whale Center is the public face of Orca Network, a nonprofit devoted to the orcas, gray whales, humpbacks and other marine mammals of the Salish Sea. Visitors browse real bone and pelt specimens including a harbor porpoise skeleton, check the latest sighting reports, pick up local whale-watching tips and browse a small gift shop and lending library. Volunteer docents run 30 to 45 minute guided tours for ages 9 and up. Open Wednesday to Sunday, 11 am to 4 pm, with hours varying by season.
