Still plenty of life being seen here in San Diego! Blue whales have been coming in and out of local waters for the past few months now and hundreds of dolphins are present every trip! There’s been several humpback sightings a couple hundred miles North of San Diego so we’re hoping that the fall season coming soon will bring some new life and missed species back into town💙 Book a trip with us (sdwhale.com) or call us at (619)309-1680 🐋
