Report Details
Its been a bit busy today. I have seen about 8 Gray Whales swim by today and a few travelers pulled off to take pictures, One gentleman asked me if the whales swim in this close was normal. I said, Yes they have been swimming by a lot this month. The times for the whale observed started at 8:40 am, around 10 am, 11:30 am, around 1:00 pm and then again around 1:50 pm, 2:30pm, 3:35 pm, last one so far at 5:10pm They all seem to swim in and along the beach. Only seen their backs and a few tails but it was very nice to watch.
