The Pacific ocean offers the Nature viewer one of the widest range of Marine Animals any where be it mammals, birds or fish. This area is largest feeding area between the tip of Baja to the Alaskan panhandle. On any given day two types of seals are likely to be seen playing and lounging, they are the over abundant California Sea Lion and the shy Harbor Seal. On rare occasions the Stellar Sea Lion and the famed Elephant Seal are seen cruising the waters. Whales are present year round to feed in the Bay's nutrient rich waters. Monterey Bay sunsetWinter and Spring Hundreds of Migrating California Gray Whales pass though and the area. During the Summer months Blue, Fin Back and Humpback Whales feed in the outer waters along with Minke and Killer Whales. Porpoises and Dolphins of all varieties feed and play all year. Pelicans, Gulls, Terns and countless variety of other sea birds call the Bay their home. Nesting along the cliffs and isolated beaches and feeding in the waters add non stop action to the skies above. The summer months provide viewing of a few of the underwater fish as well, with the influx of warm summer waters Blue, Thresher and the enormous Basking Sharks can be seen cruising the surface on calm windless days. Along with the Captain's mascot the comical looking Pacific Sunfish or Mola- Mola which basks in the sun to attract sea gulls for a sea lice cleaning. These are the extras on a fishing trip. Or we can make specific trips for viewing all the creatures above also. I hope this guide gives you a little better understanding of what you may see on the fascinating waters of the Pacific Ocean.
