Seasonal feeding patterns offer views of these extraordinary mammals from mid-April through September in the Santa Barbara Channel.  Whale Watching cruises offer a chance to get close to view the whales as they travel as well as views of the Channel Islands. In the summer months, Island Packers offers an all-day whale watching excursion to Santa Rosa Island with a visit to Painted Cave on Santa Cruz Islands north Shore. An experience not to be missed!  www.IslandPackers.com
