For those planning to spend the holidays near the Oregon coast, make sure to check out
Whale Watching Week. Whale Watching Week is an annual event that takes place Dec. 27-31
this year at various locations on the coast. This week, as well as a week in March, is the best
time to see the annual migration of gray whales, according to Whale Watching Spoken Here’s
website. The Whale Watching Spoken Here program, based out of Depoe Bay, is offering
volunteers to be stations at 24 sites along the coast from 10 am to 1 pm each day of Whale
Watching Week. The closest spot to Eugene is the Sea Lion Caves turnout, north of Florence.
“Whales are a special part of the Oregon coast,” says Luke Parsons, an Oregon Parks and
Recreation Department ranger, in an email to EW. “Nearly 20,000 people visit our whale
watch sites each winter and are educated by our excellent volunteers.” He adds: “I hope
visitors walk away feeling a little more connected to these animals, along with a greater
appreciation of our oceans.” For more info about Whale Watching Week and to see a full map
of watch sites, visit whalespoken.wordpress.com. — Meerah Powell
