Weekly Photo Challenge – Serene
California coast from Monterey Bay area to San Diego is a good place for whale watching. Humpback whales, Blue and Gray whales migrate through the water for feeding. These whales are enormous, yet they eat small sea creatures such as krill, crabs, and shrimps and the California coast has a concentration of them. Bottlenose dolphins are frequently seen in this water also.
We went on a whale watching cruise in November 2015. We didn’t see whales, but we saw many bottlenose dolphins coming up to the surface of water. A few private yachts were floating in place simply for yachting. The calm and blue water reflected the clear sky was serene. Whether we saw the whales or not, it was a refreshing day.

Yes, if you could go to either Pacific or Atlantic coast, you would be able to watch at least the dolphins!

I want to go to cedar key which is only an hour away to get the sunset on the west coast of florida. That is my latest plan that I think is doable!
