About
Season: Late April to mid-October
Stellwagen Bank, the National Marine Sanctuary located just north of Provincetown, is home to a myriad of marine life, most notably whales. We will see Humpbacks, Finbacks, and probably even Minke’s. Although North Atlantic Right Whales are now an endangered species and sightings are becoming rarer, they are still occasionally seen around our waters and we sometimes come upon them, which is a real treat. Other marine species such as dolphins, porpoise’s and ocean sunfish (mola mola) are seen on our trips as well.
