Chances of Seeing
Each Kind of Whale

Orcas can be seen in the San Juan's all year, and are the most frequently seen whales on all of our tours.

 

Humpback and Gray Whales migrate through the Salish Sea on their journey between colder feeding areas in the north in summer and warmer breeding areas in the south in winter.

Minke Whales can be seen here year round.

Tours de avistamiento de ballenas

Ofrecemos Tours de Avistamiento de Ballenas programados diariamente desde Skyline Marina en el continente en Anacortes, WA y desde la Isla Orcas en las Islas San Juan.  

 

Nuestros recorridos duran de tres a cuatro horas y salimos de mayo a septiembre en busca de orcas, ballenas jorobadas, ballenas minke y ballenas grises. Observamos ballenas en más del 95% de nuestros viajes.  Los mejores avistamientos de Orca son en junio, julio, agosto y septiembre. Las jorobadas y los visones son posibles en primavera, verano y otoño, y los grises son posibles en primavera y otoño.

También nos encontramos con frecuencia con leones marinos, focas, marsopas, águilas, nutrias y aves marinas. Nuestros barcos son algunos de los barcos de observación de ballenas más rápidos, equipados con plataformas de observación interiores y exteriores, baños y tripulados por los capitanes y naturalistas más experimentados de la región.

@TrevorDerie

No trip to Washington is complete without a whale watch and Outer Islands Excursions is a great choice. Capt Jim, and naturalists Delaney and Sophia were friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable hosts. We saw Orcas, a humpback, seals, sea lions, porpoises and eagles. The boat was a perfect size with both inside and outside viewing opportunities. Such a perfect way to experience the natural beauty of the San Juans.
