See the Whales!

Considering a whale-watching cruise? Giant blue whales have been spotted off of Newport Beach for more than a week, and finback whales are traveling through the area too. No one knows for certain how much longer the blue whales will remain nearby but there’s a special going on at Newport Landing for a $15 whale watching through Sunday, Oct. 23.
Newport Landing Sportfishing is at 309 Palm Street, Suite A in Newport Beach. 949.675.055.
