whale watching year-round. From early December to early April, we

Februaray, they are migrating from Alaska to Mexico to give birth
to their calfs. From the end of February to early april, the whales
return with their calfs. You'll also see killer whales and many
different types of dolphins and porpoise. Sea lions and sea otters
are also common. Our whale watching trips are 2 hours long and fully
narrated by our skippers,
some who have been doing this for 30 years. It's a beautiful and
educational trip. The trips run every day. Call us for times. The

In the tradition of John Steinbeck,
the National Steinbeck Center draws its inspiration from the diverse
people and the land of the Salinas Valley. Through the exploration
of Steinbeck's work and themes, we provide and support educational
experiences that inspire audiences to learn about human nature,
literature, history, agriculture, and the arts.
Rooted in the earth and the people of the Salinas Valley, author
John Steinbeck achieved worldwide recognition for his keen observations
and powerful descriptions of the human condition. He championed
the forgotten and disenfranchised while affirming the strength of
the human spirit. His life was as rich and provocative as the Salinas
Valley he immortalized in his writing. Steinbeck drew his inspiration
from this land and became known throughout the world, receiving
the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1962.
