As the summer months begin we get the privilage of spotting some of the nearly 200 resident Gray Whales that frequent the Oregon Coast off Depoe Bay. The Morning Star and the Mariner were successful today in the ongoing quest to visit these giant denizens of the sea. The term "resident" when it applies to marine species means that the animals do not migrate to feed, instead they return to the same place to do so every year. Not to be confused with the thought that the whales are in the same place all year round. Come with us on our next Whale Watching cruise to quench the thirst for ocean creature knowledge! Give us a call or book online. Don't forget to look up how to get involved in ocean conservation. You can participate no matter where you live!
