Great way to spend your weekend see the giants of the sea up close and personal with Jersey shore whale watch, rated the #1 whale watching tour in New Jersey call 732.451.6003

I just looked at the GPS data for the whale photos we were just north of the Mantoloking bridge.The great November whale watching trip. 
We went South towards Island Beach State Park beautiful afternoon Sunday yes it was cold but it was sunny it was beautiful. We didn’t see any whales even though there was a report of three whales  done in the area in the morning we turned around to head back home a little bit disappointed when suddenly,Danielle spotted spouts in the distance. Humpback whales spotted off of Bayhead beach.

The water was very calm it was a beautiful day on the water or the any ocean waves everyone enjoyed it I really didn’t notice anyone being sick it might’ve been we had about 50 people on a boat which is a good number for late fall trip because everybody was able to be inside the boat and stay warm on the way back which if we had 78 people some people would been outside not by choice but by noon so it was a perfect amount of people around 50 is a good number to go whale watching it was great to see all the whales off of Ocean County New Jersey. Join us in 2020 or we’re watching trips will be every Sunday and we’re going to add some Saturdays and also weekday trips we can do a lot more trips in 2020 the season will start again in late April because until then the oceans too cold for people really to be out there April would be able to handle it so we look forward to seeing everyone we still might have another trip or two in November those are definitely trips for people who don’t mind the cold think outdoor football sitting in the stadium with her if you don’t mind that then you wouldn’t mind going well watching and seeing these beautiful humpback whales along the Jersey shore is they migrate south for the winter.

Bill McKim : We had a another great trip on the boat, the boat is legal to hold 130 people We had about 80 people on the trip great crowd no one got seasick! The whale watching was great we tracked a very active feeding Humpback whale off the cast of Sandy Hook, its amazing to see the giants of the sea feeding so close to NYC.

well it was a sold out trip today over 80 people we got off to a slow start that had me worried but we were rewarded. The captain smartly decided to go back to out=r favorite whale watching area that early in the trip saw no whales. We saw 2 nice size whales on the return to the area.
