Ocean Friendly Tours and Deep Blue Conservancy conducted a field research survey in Monterey Bay, California.

It was a fascinating journey to one of the feeding grounds of the very same Humpback Whales that you've come to know off Puerto Vallarta over the many years you've shared with us.

These trips in state-of-the-art zodiac designed for high performance in offshore waters are exclusive to our Ocean Friendly family. We observed the extremely different behaviors and acoustical vocalizations of the Humpbacks in their feeding grounds.

We continued to collect fluke identifications and document the behavior and acoustical differences during this part of their migration. Once again, we documented and enjoyed the acoustic beauty of the vocalizations of the Humpback Whales.

We wish to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Humpback Whale behaviors in this particular environment.

We're gearing up for our whale watching boat tours again this winter. The opening of the season begins soon. Check out our tours at Ocean Friendly.

We hope to share this extended experience with you and look forward to welcoming you on board!
