Whale Watching Eco Tours
Sailing from San Francisco Bay to the Farallon Islands
March and April, subject to availability

Sail from San Francisco Bay to the Farallon Islands some 27 miles offshore of San Francisco in the Pacific Ocean. The islands boast the largest seabird breeding colony on the Pacific coast south of Alaska, hosting more than 300,000 birds each summer. Breeding species include western gull, Cassin's auklet, rhinoceros auklet, common murre, Brandt's cormorant, double-crested cormorant, pelagic cormorant, pigeon guillemot, ashy storm petrel, Leach's storm petrel, tufted puffin, and American black oystercatcher.

Stellar sea lions and northern elephant seals breed and pup here.  California sea lions, harbor seals and northern fur seals live here. The blue whale, the largest animal on earth, swims the waters.

Blues migrate past the Farallons each year on their way to Baja, California where they feed and give birth.  Sperm whales, minke whales, orcas, fin, gray, sei, humpback and right whales are seen.  Dall's porpoises, false killer whales, Risso's dolphins and the Great White Shark inhabit the area.
