A Whale Of A Good Time!

Laguna Beach Kayak Tour

During your Laguna Beach kayak tour, you may see many forms of sea life. Some common species include spotted harbor seals, sea lions, and the most dramatic of all, Gray Whales! Our whales begin their life journey in Baja California Mexico where they are born in shallow protected lagoons. The newborn gray whale starts out as a 15 foot long 2,000 pound baby. Most gray whales migrate to the Bering, Chukchi and Beaufort Seas. Thats an epic journey of 16,000 to 20,000 km. One of the longest migrations of any animal on earth! They move north hugging the coast line with their calves. We have even seen them during our laguna beach surf lessons! These beautiful beasts can reach a length of 49 feet and can weigh up to 90,000 lbs. They feed by filtering food through baleen ( brush like plates.) Baleen is made from keratin, the same as fingernails.
