Newport Landing Whale Watching has served southern California for over 20 years providing whale watching and dolphin cruises. Year around cruises view many varieties of whales including the giant blue whale, which attains lengths over 80 feet, several types of dolphin, seals, and all sorts of other marine life. Each cruise is a unique experience; you may never know what you might encounter. A recent cruise encountered a huge pod of killer whales numbering over 30 killer whales including adults and young, definitely a trip of a life time. The waters surrounding Newport Harbor offer deep nutrient rich waters which attracts all types of marine creatures.

The Laguna Beach coastline is just south of Newport Harbor and offers some of the most beautiful coastline of Southern California. The gray whales another whale very commonly seen on our cruises seem to enjoy the beauty of the Laguna Beach coastline as well with many whales spotted just a couple hundred yards off of the beach. Most of our whale watching cruises take in the scenic backdrops of Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, and Huntington Beach. Due to the geography of the Orange County coastline and the protection of Catalina Island, the ocean conditions are incredibly calm and allow whale watchers to fully enjoy this amazing experience.
