Whale Watching Week

Hey, the end of the year. You know what that means, right? Of course, the whales are migrating down the coast. You should come down and see them spouting as the swim by. The last few days have been fantastic as it has been clear and calm. There will be trained volenteers at all the good spots for watching. The State even has a web site dedicated to these part time residents, check the locations here.

OK, I do not have whale Salt and Pepper shakers, this is as close as I can get.

I'll now have to be on the hunt for some whales. Do I need a permit?

So the number one tip on seeing the whales: They are swimming from the North to the South, so you should always be looking North. When you see a spout, just follow with your eyes a few hundred yards south and you should see more spouts. If you look to the South, they've just swam past you. 61 were spotted on Saturday!

Take advantage of our Storm Watcher Special while you look for the whales. We are also hosting the locals for New Years Eve and the Rose Bowl on New Years Day. Come join us.

Another funny thing happend, well, I think it's funny. We rely on 2 newspapers for events going on around Pacific City. They both ran stories on whale watching week. That's not unusual, it is, after all, a big deal. The funny thing is they both used the same photograph on the cover, oops!
