What a memorable whale. 🐋 This orphaned calf was rescued and rehabilitated by SeaWorld San Diego over 27 years ago. While she was successfully returned to the ocean, we learned a tremendous amount about early stage development of gray whale calves during her time with us.

We’ve been encountering gray whales with their NEWBORN BABIES on recent trips - including TODAY! 🥹🫶 Gray whales migrate from Alaska to Mexico each year to give birth to their calves. While the whales aim to have their calves in Mexico, some babies simply can’t wait to be born and arrive while the mother is still on her way south! We’ve been lucky to see several newborn calves this week, a welcome sight for us as we saw ZERO southbound calves last season. Excellent drone video by @patrickc_la #

Gray whales used to be known as "devil fish" because they would aggressively fight back against whalers. Nowadays, gray whales are known as the "friendly whale". In the Baja lagoons they'll often approach boats and bring their calves over for human attention. On the migration journey they'll occasionally "mug" us by closely approaching and swimming around our boat.

Did you know the Gray Whales love to come in close to the shore? 🐋✨🐋✨🐋 Gray whales inhabit shallow coastal waters of the eastern North Pacific. The gray whale makes one of the longest of all mammalian migrations, averaging 10,000-14,000 miles round trip. In October, the whales begin to leave their feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas and head south for their mating and calving lagoons in Baja California, Mexico. The whales remain in the lagoons for 2-3 months, allowing the calves to

Scarback is the most famous gray whale, known for the huge wound on her back which was likely caused by an exploding harpoon. Scarback has never been known to visit Russian waters and she was most likely harpooned somewhere in Alaska. She is known to be female since she has successfully brought up several calves. While most gray whales migrate from the breeding ground in Baja California, Mexico to their feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas, Scarback does not. She is 1 of approximately

Best time for gray whale watching at San Ignacio Lagoon? 🐋 The peak season runs from mid-January to mid-April, and that’s when you’ll see the highest numbers of gray whales, from single adults to mothers with their calves. At the start of the season, you might catch sight of newborn calves. As the weeks go on, these little ones begin mingling more. By the end of the season, they’re often more playful and social, enjoying their time in the lagoon before heading north on their very first migratio

Gray whales have few natural enemies, but their main threat comes from orcas (killer whales). This is one reason why San Ignacio Lagoon is the perfect nursery: 👉 Shallow waters protect the calves from orcas 👉 The lagoon is sheltered from strong ocean currents and waves 👉 Shallow depths let mothers keep a close eye on their calves as they learn to surface for air, dive, and interact with other whales Want to visit this protected gray whale sanctuary? 🐋 Join us for a multi-day adventure with d

Why do gray whales migrate to Baja? 🐋 Because the warmer, more protected waters in the bays and lagoons along the Pacific coast are perfect for mating, giving birth, and caring for calves during the winter. Single gray whales visit different lagoons with one thing on their minds: to mate. We’re all for it — the more mating that happens, the more calves we’ll see next season. The females that became pregnant in these same lagoons last year now return to give birth to their calves. Come meet the

Nobody knows exactly why gray whales seek human interaction. Some speculate it’s learned behavior passed through generations. Others believe the mothers simply feel safe here, and their calves mirror their comfort. Whatever the reason, the encounters are always on the whales’ terms!��There’s no chasing, no baiting, no performance. Just spontaneous curiosity. If you’re ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, join us this winter. Our camp opens mid-January with 4- and 6-day trips, based out of

Every year, gray whales make one of the longest migrations of any mammal. 🐋 In September, they leave their Arctic feeding grounds and begin their journey south. From December onward, they start arriving in the calm and sheltered lagoons of Baja, Mexico, where they mate, give birth, and care for their calves. When the season comes to an end, they begin the long journey north again, traveling up to 12,000 miles round trip. It’s an incredible cycle of life and love, and one of the most moving wild

Today we had a spectacular day! We encountered friendly gray whales socializing together, and at one point, a humpback whale joined the socializing gray whales while Risso’s dolphins and Pacific white-sided dolphins leaped around. We even had the incredible experience of gray whales coming towards us, displaying friendly behavior! If that wasn’t amazing enough, we also saw between 50 to 100 humpback whales, a megapod of Pacific white-sided dolphins numbering in the thousands, and a large pod of

Scarback is the most famous of all the gray whales alive today! We saw her on Sunday off Newport Beach while aboard @newportcoastaladventure and @newportwhales. She is the survivor of an explosive harpoon attack from sometime in the mid to late 1900’s. She’s been documented with calves several times over the years and we’re glad she’s still nice and healthy! While gray whales make the farthest migration of any mammal on the planet, Scarback is not part of that consensus. She is part of a small p
