Q&A
A: There's no strict age limit, but kids will need to be able to follow instructions and stay seated when required. I've taken my 6-year-old, and he loved it! Just be sure to bring a jacket since it can get chilly on the water.
A: If the weather looks bad, they usually notify you 24 hours in advance. They’ll help you reschedule or give a full refund if you can’t make it. I had to reschedule once, and it was super easy!
A: Definitely dress in layers! It can get cold when you’re out on the water, even in summer. A windbreaker and some comfy shoes are a must. Bring a hat if you have one—sun exposure can be strong out there!

Thinking of gifting the whale watching tour in Monterey
Hey everyone! I’m considering getting a whale watching tour from Monterey for my partner's birthday. It’s a 4-hour trip with marine biologists on board, and I heard they even take pictures! Does anyone have tips on the best time to go? Is the experience as amazing as it sounds?
What to expect on the whale watching tour?
So I took the whale watching tour from Monterey last month, and wow, it was incredible! The naturalist onboard was super knowledgeable and shared so many cool facts. We even had a pro photographer taking shots of the whales! Just a heads up—bring a jacket! It gets chilly out there.
