Gloucester Whale Watching Tours: Stellwagen Bank Sightings
Gloucester Whale Watching Tours: Stellwagen Bank Sightings★★★★★★★★★★ 4.92 (2,321)4hA whale watching tour from Gloucester, Massachusetts, departs from downtown's working waterfront and travels to Stellwagen Bank Marine Sanctuary with a naturalist guide aboard. The boat carries no more than 150 passengers and runs 3.5 to 4 hours, extended if whales move further offshore. Boarding begins 30 minutes before departure; the Privateer is equipped with restrooms and a galley. Trips run mid-April through mid-October and operate in all weather.Is it for me?The boat holds 150 instead of 300, so you're not packed shoulder-to-shoulder on deck when the whales surface—that's the difference between spotting them clearly and squinting over a crowd.Free cancellationTravelers' pickMost bookedfromUS$ 45View ›
