Condor Express - Whale Watching
Condor Cruises @ Sea Landing
301 West Cabrillo Boulevard
Santa Barbara , California 93101
Tel: (805) 882 0088 or (888) 77-WHALE
"Whale watching with a guarantee" is the motto of Condor Express—that's what they all say. But the waters off Santa Barbara are home to one of the world's largest concentrations of migrating blue and humpback whales, plus orcas, minke whales, dolphins, and other finned mammals throughout the year. And, if you go out and not see a whale, they will give you a whale-check for another FREE cruise!!!
Best time to see blues and humpbacks: May through September. Dolphins can be seen throughout the year, and orcas surface occasionally between late February and March. Catch the gray whales during their winter migration to Mexico between December and March, or between February and May, when they head north with their newborn calves.
Condor Express offers two-hour coast cruises and half-day tours of the Channel Islands, depending on whale migrations. The only time that spotting a whale is not guaranteed is during the fall. They also offer private charters and adventure cruises.
CONDOR Cruises is recommended by, and affiliated with, the University of California Santa Barbara's Marine Science Institute, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. With qualified naturalists always on board, the CONDOR EXPRESS offers an interesting, informative and exciting trip on the most advanced & comfortable excursion vessel on the West Coast.
