WELCOME THE WHALES!
Join Orca Network for a Gray Whale Cruise on Sunday April 14th from 3:00 to 5:00 pm with Puget Sound Express. Our local Puget Sound gray whales, sometimes fondly referred to as the “Sounders” represent roughly a dozen animals, part of the larger population of the Eastern North Pacific gray whales. During their northern migration from Baja California, these individuals break off the migration route to feed on ghost shrimp for two to three months each spring in the North Puget Sound waters.
The $75 registration fees includes a two-hour cruise with Orca Network staff and volunteers, appetizers and non-alcoholic drinks. Proceeds benefit Orca Network's education and outreach programs.
The cruise is sold out. Please contact Cindy at cindy@orcanetwork.org to be placed on a waiting list for cancellations.
