The Los Angeles Whale Watching and Dolphin Tour is a whale watching cruise departing from the Southern California coast, where the Pacific migration corridor brings grey whales, blue whales, and humpbacks within viewing range depending on the season. The waters off Los Angeles are among the most active on the US Pacific coast, with blue whales feeding in the Santa Barbara Channel during summer and grey whales passing through on their annual migration between December and April.

On board, passengers scan for dolphin pods, sea lions, and seabirds alongside the larger cetaceans, with naturalist commentary provided throughout. For more things to do in Los Angeles, the city offers a broad range of land and sea activities year-round. Tickets typically cover the cruise duration, onboard narration, and port departure, with seasonal schedules varying by operator.
