Whale Watching Cruises in California
California, with a shoreline that stretches over a significant portion of the Pacific Coast, is a natural place to take a whale watching cruise, and there are plenty of whale watching cruises in California to be taken.

As is the case with most large American cities, there are plenty of things to see and do in San Diego, and we have highlighted a few sights and activities in particular that could be experienced before or after a cruise.
