Whale Watch in New Jersey and Discover the Giants of the Sea

Seeing a whale breach the steely waves for the first time is a majestic sight. Grand creatures like Humpback, Finback, and Minke whales can be observed in their New England natural habitats in October. If you’re looking to travel a little closer to home, Humpback whales can also be spotted close to the coast of the Jersey Shore in May. If you want to experience these large mammals in action on your next vacation with Sundance Vacations, here’s what you can expect!

The most commonly spotted whale is the Humpback whale. Humpback whales are easily distinguishable by their sleek, smoky-colored back, and bumpy rostrum and flippers. Adult females can grow to become 60 ft. in length, and males are only slightly smaller.
