Just minutes after being born a baby dolphin is able to swim on its own. This afternoon the Newport Legacy was treated to a nursery pod that included some tiny baby short-beaked common dolphins! Our photographer, Delaney @seataceans captured this portrait of one of the little babies.*Looking to the week ahead the weather looks exceptionally nice with calm seas and sunny skies. We offer trips throughout the day including trips near sunset. We expect to see more of our summer feeding activity including dolphins, humpback whales, minke whales, and more! We hope to see you out on the water!

Hello humpback whales! We enjoyed watching multiple humpback whales and hundreds of dolphins today! Our photographer @seataceans captured this special moment when a humpback whale decided to roll in some kelp! Humpback whales are very expressive whales with big personalities! They are curious by nature and love to check out floating kelp paddies. In addition to humpback whales and minke whales, we have been seeing dolphin super pods of over 500 dolphins per group! If you are a dolphin lover now is the time to join us on the ocean!

Two Great White Sharks have been seen by the Newport Legacy in the last two days!This baby shark (doo doo) was filmed by our photographer, Delaney, @seataceans during a whale watch on Wednesday. A second Great White was seen today in a nearby area. These small sharks feed on bottom fish and sting rays up and down the Southern California coastline. It was a special encounter to get an up close look at an important apex predator in our oceans. You never know what you may see on the ocean! We see all kinds of wildlife during our whale watch cruises and hope you can join us this weekend! The weather should be beautiful and you may even get a chance to see a shark!
