The migration of the Pacific Gray Whale is truly one of the most magnificent sights offered in Southern California. You will also be able to view various marine life such as playful porpoises, sea lions harbor seals, and a variety of birds such as sea gulls, terns and pelicans. The migration generally runs after Christmas through mid-April.
