Spring Whale Watch Week
Event Navigation
Seaside is ideally positioned for Winter Whale Watch Week in Oregon. Just north you’ll find volunteers staffed at Fort Stevens State Park and south at the Neahkahnie Mountain Overlook on Highway 101.
People come from all over the world to learn about the Gray whales that travel along the Oregon Coast each year. Whales are visible from Oregon’s shores all year long although some months are better than others (September is actually the easiest month to spot them from the Promenade in Seaside!). Spring watching begins in late March 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.
