Wild Pacific gray whale

Traveler Story: Among the Great Whales

“Trip of a lifetime, it’s not every day you get to pet a gray whale, or two. We saw four blue whales, hundreds of dolphins and dozens of humpback whales. The Nat Geo Sea Bird staff and crew are the best.”

— K. Myers | Among the Great Whales | March 2017
