Why you should go…
Monterey Bay Whale Watch runs biologist-narrated trips from Fisherman's Wharf out over the Monterey submarine canyon, deep water so close to shore that whales feed within sight of land in every season. Humpbacks, blue whales, orcas, and huge dolphin pods all make the trip list depending on the month. Dress warm; the bay delivers.
