This is it — the final scientist-led whale watching cruise of the 2026 season. Board the Viking Star at Montauk Harbor for six hours on the open Atlantic, guided by CRESLI researchers who bring decades of experience spotting humpbacks, fin whales, dolphins, sea turtles, and other marine life off the tip of Long Island.

CRESLI's whale watches are more than a boat ride — they're a floating classroom where marine biologists share real-time identifications and stories about the creatures you encounter. The October trip often delivers some of the season's most dramatic sightings as marine mammals make their fall migration. Don't miss this last chance to experience one of Long Island's most extraordinary natural spectacles.
