Spring Whale Watch Week 2026

Save the Date! The Annual Spring Whale Watch Week along our coastline is March 21 - 29, 2026.

Enjoy watching, as the gray whales travel north on their way towards Alaska. The first surge swims past Oregon around the end of March, and we watch the north-bound whales all the way until June.

Volunteers will be at various locations, including Boiler Bay and the Depoe Bay Whale Watching Center to answer questions. 10 AM - 1 PM.

Visit OregonStateParks.org or ORWhaleWatch.org.

Tours in Depoe Bay are available through: Dockside Charters, TradeWindsCharters.com, Whale Research EcoExcursions, Whale's Tail Charters.
