Blue Ocean Whale Watch on Monterey Bay

Our company offers year round whale watching trips and private charters aboard the most unique whale watching vessel in the Monterey Bay area.

Blue Ocean Whale Watch is owner operated and has the most unique boat on the bay. Our boat, High Spirits, is a luxury vessel with plenty of space for you inside and out. We have an observation deck up top which provides an incredible vantage point for taking photos. The company was created in 2011 and is owned by Captain Jim Davis and Kate Cummings, a knowledgeable naturalist. Both Jim and Kate have a deep respect for the ocean and its inhabitants. We abide by all marine mammal protection laws and are often rewarded by close encounters. When the whales are comfortable with the boat, they often come check us out! We also offer private charters for any event such as weddings, corporate events, birthdays, burials at sea/ash scatterings and so on.
