Buckle up for Pacific Offshore's biggest Expedition yet!! This is a TWO DAY trip, and the main event will be a marathon covering 230+ nautical miles of island coastline and open ocean. Elevated opportunities for sightings of rare whale species exist along the way, in particular Beaked Whales and Killer Whales. We will of course be stopping for sightings of cetaceans along the route.


This trip can only be attempted in a "weather window" of calm conditions. We can only speculate if the weather will be good enough on the date listed. For that reason, please join the wait list to express your interest in coming aboard. A waitlist order does not obligate you to join, only showing you are interested in this date or a future date. We will reach out to you to confirm the date of the trip as aligning with our requirement for calm seas. We insist the weather must be perfect in order for this trip to be attempted.



Departing just before sunrise from Channel Islands Harbor and concluding at sunset in Avalon, Catalina, day 1 of our trip will involve visitation to all 8 of the Channel Islands by boat. After spending the night in Avalon, the following day we will whale watch our way back to Oxnard (a 65 mile trip).


Highlights along the way will be:


-Anacapa Island's Arch

-Santa Cruz Island's Painted Cave

-Santa Rosa Island's Torrey Pines

-San Miguel Island's Cuyler Harbor

-San Nicholas Island's Sea Otter Colony

-Santa Barbara Island's Arch and Islets

-San Clemente Island's Navy Seal Training Village

-Santa Catalina Island's Avalon (hot food, hotels, and bars)


Please digest the details about this once in a lifetime Expedition:

-The only island that we are permitted to set foot on is Catalina.
