(Newswire.net — May 16, 2018) — If you live in southern California, then one of your favorite activity on Saturdays and Sundays would be whale watching. You can go by yourself, but it’s a good idea if you book a trip with some private firm. If you have kids, you must take your kids for whale watching, and the good news is that there are some organizations which offer free whale watching trips to kids and families as well. You can donate some amount if you want to but they won’t ask you to pay for that. As it’s free weekend activity, you must plan to take your kids to this amazing whale watching Dana Point. Let’s discuss some of the reasons explaining why:

  • You will stay connected to the ocean by going there whenever you get time, and it will become your part of life. You will think about the ocean, the coastal wildlife, the importance, and preservation. You will take practical steps to keep the ocean and the wildlife safe.
  • Your kids will learn a lot about the ocean and coastal life. They will watch the whales and will never forget this experience.
  • You can finally tell them about the ocean about which they read in many books and at many road signs and even at drains which were marked “drains to the ocean.”
  • Your kids will be able to see whales, dolphins, seagulls, sea lions, and many other seabirds while their 2 hours trip to whale watching Dana Point.
  • You will observe a strange relation between kids, whales, and dolphins. When kids shout with joy after watching whales, the whales come closer to the boats where they hear the kids shouting. You will observe that whales enjoy the presence of kids on board.
  • It’s better to make online reservations before you go there. You may get early bird discount as well if you reserve your seats before. And most of the organizers have limited seats for kids, so if you apply early, you can save some bucks.
  • You don’t need to worry about parking as the parking lot is safe. You can park your car for hours, days and even for a week or more.
  • As you board the ship, try to find a spot where you can’t smell the freaking smell of diesel. This smell can bother you a lot during the voyage. Apart from diesel smell, the best spot on the boat is just below the captain’s window. You can enjoy every view there.
  • Don’t forget there’s always a snack bar on the ship where you can have snacks, and your kids can have some toys to play with in case they are teasing you.

Tips for Voyaging for Whale Watching Dana Point

Let me tell you some saving tips as well so that you may save some bucks.

  • You can enjoy 50% discount on Tuesday. So if you are free during the week, you can have fun at half price.
  • If you have enjoyed whale watching once, don’t throw the tickets or vouchers because most of the companies offer 50% or less discount if you visit the second time.
  • Every year in March, Whale Festival is celebrated so you can avail the festival discount during March.
