CRESLI's 31st season of whale watching research continues out of Montauk. This summer has been extraordinary — recent trips have documented dozens of humpback whales bubble-net feeding, finback whales with calves, pods of short-beaked common dolphins, sea turtles, and ocean sunfish. Naturalists with over 39 years of experience narrate every trip and conduct research alongside passengers.
Four trips depart this week from Viking Landing. CRESLI is a proud participant in NOAA's Whale SENSE program, ensuring responsible and respectful encounters with marine life. Bucket list item for sure.
