Boats on Monterey Bay
THE GODDESS FANTASY
The largest, cleanest, most experienced, safest whale watching boat in Monterey
WHALE WATCHING MONTEREY
With the Sea Goddess, you can see whales year round.
The Monterey Bay is California’s best location for viewing humpback whales, killer whales a.k.a. orcas, gray whales, blue whales, great white sharks and the abundance of marine species including dolphins, jellyfish and mola mola, which call the Pacific Ocean home.
Sea Goddess Whale Watching promises you a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our whale watching tours depart from Moss Landing, at the mouth of the Monterey Bay Canyon, one of the largest underwater canyons in the world! The canyon is a nutrient-rich zone that attracts all types of marine life, making Moss Landing the best place for whale watching tours in the entire state of California, and Monterey Bay including San Francisco.
In fact, the Monterey Bay is home to resident whales & dolphins and visited by so many migratory whales that we’re able to offer guaranteed whale sightings year-round. Plan your day!
Experience, Skill & Secret Spot Knowledge
Skilled professionals will be at your disposal throughout your whale watching journey.
Our Captains have some of the longest whale watch experience on the Monterey Bay and are skilled at knowing all the best spots for seeing migrating whales that come down from San Francisco on their way to Mexico. They will lead you to witness humpback whales, pods of orcas, and the blue whale, the largest and possibly most magnificent animal on the planet. Learn about whale behaviors such as the epic breaching, lunge feeding, pectoral slapping and tail slapping that is often on display from the acrobatic humpback whales from our marine biologist naturalists that have a passion for educating you.
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
We are the highest ranked whale watching team in all of Monterey.
Sea Goddess offers a fun whale-watching experience. The staff knows a lot about ocean creatures. The highlights were boating alongside a pod of common dolphins.
I've been twice with Sea Goddess and both times were 5 out of 5 for the experience! Easy check in, knowledgeable naturalists, helpful staff, ample space on the boat. 40+ whales, 150+ dolphins, countless sea lions & otters! Waterspouts, breaches, lunge feeding. You name it! It's amazing to be allowed into their world and I appreciate this company's desire educate as well as entertain.
This past trip was a bit rough on me and I found myself tended to by one of the staff. He helped me with ginger mints, placement on the boat, and empathetic encouragement. (ha!)
Thank you to Sea Goddess Whale Watching for such an incredible time!
We hadn't even set sale maybe 10 minutes and we were seeing humpback whales. We also saw a common dolphins seals. The naturalist was very informative. We even had a blue friendly whale that came right up to our boat and waved at us. I cannot wait to go back. We did the Vip seating up top, which I
Great ship, great staff . We saw a lot of whales , spectacular day. The crew is also very knowledgeable about whales and the Monterey Bay ecosystem.
We really enjoyed our whale watching trip with Sea Goddess. Our experience was very memorable because of the number of whales we saw that day.Our family has been on about a dozen whale watches in as many years, both in the Monterey Bay area and out of Dana Point in southern California. We know to look for whales, but that is not guaranteed to see them. In fact, our first ever trip years ago was so spectacular that we were told by crew to "not expect that every time, if ever again."
So, we went out on the Goddess Fantasy on a gorgeous afternoon. She's a nice, sturdy craft. We saw humpbacks. It was great. Since we'd seen orcas the prior day, we were delighted that this trip did not "blank" as can happen. I thanked our fellow passengers for bringing their "first time good luck" with them.
Then, "the Party" was spotted and we booked it in that direction.
By "Party" I mean that there was a feeding party with countless humpback whales in all directions. COUNTLESS. Everywhere we looked there were waterspouts and there were too many to count. Humpbacks breached near and far. We watched a smaller boat almost get taken out by a breach too close to it. Lunge feeding was taking place all around us. Whales swam around and under the boat. I don't think that I've ever been in the presence of so many whales. We stayed with them for the better part of an hour and I've been thinking of them ever since.
Thank you to Sea Goddess Whale Watching for such an incredible time!
I have gone on several whale watching trips on the Sea Goddess and have not been disappointed! We saw so many whales and a school of dolphins. The employees are all so helpful and ready to answer questions.
We had an amazing experience with Sea Goddess on 8/27. Our boat had around 40-50 people, which gave plenty of room to move around comfortably. We never felt crowded, and there was no fighting for space along the rails, which made the experience even more enjoyable.The boarding process was smooth, and everyone we interacted with around the dock was friendly and helpful. Our guide was awesome--very knowledgeable and educational throughout the cruise. We learned so much, and at the end of the trip she took the time to talk with everyone individually.
Most importantly, we saw a ton of whales and dolphins! It was an incredible experience, and we had such a great time. We would definitely go again and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend Sea Goddess for anyone wanting a fun, educational, and memorable whale-watching experience!
