Watch the Monterey Bay “come alive’ before your eyes.
It is here that seven different species of Whales and seven different species of Dolphin and Porpoise can be found. Sea Lions, Harbor Seals, Sea Otters and nearly one hundred different species of Pelagic Sea Birds –both endemic and migratory- are common. Even Sea Turtles, Jellies, Sunfish (Mola Mola) and a variety of Sharks can be seen.
The Stagnaro family has been serving the Santa Cruz area for over a century when Italian Patriarch Cottardo Stagnaro settled in Santa Cruz in 1879. This historical landmark business is still providing Ocean Adventures to thousands of people each year. There is something for everyone: Calm Water Sanctuary Scenic Cruises; Whale, Dolphin & Sea Life Excursions; Sunset Cruises; and Private Group outings for any occasion.
Santa Cruz Whale Watching was created by Stagnaro Charter Boats, a historical landmark business in Santa Cruz for over 100 years. While sustainable fishing is still a significant source of our livelihood, eco-friendly tourism and public access to the Sanctuary to promote conservation and awareness of our sensitive marine environment has become a focal point. For the past five years we have been involved in changing our “look” both physically and conceptually. Our new year-round wildlife tours focuses on eco-friendly Marine Life Excursions. Santa Cruz Whale Watching, with our new state of the art passenger yacht, provides fully narrated, fun and educational trips on the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary.
We feature seasonal inner bay calm water cruises and year-round Outer Bay Whale, Dolphin and Sea Life Cruises. Santa Cruz Whale Watching is ideal for individuals, private groups or school group outings. Discover the Monterey bay like never before.
