Island Adventures Whale Watching will begin offering whale watching tours out of Everett on Saturday. A tour is also scheduled for Sunday. Tours will be available through May 8.
Tours start at 11 a.m. and last for three hours. The schedule is here.
If you go, you might get a chance to see a humpback whale that has been hanging out near Edmonds and the south side of Whidbey Island, said Jess Plier of Island Adventures.
While gray whales haven’t been spotted yet, Plier said they show up around this time of year like clockwork.
Plier said the company use information from land based spotters, as well as other vessels out on the water, to decide where to go each day for the best chance of spotting the most wildlife.
In addition to whales, you’re likely to see harbor seals, sea lions, porpoise, eagles and osprey.
