The Sitka WhaleFest kicks off each spring with an annual cruise to explore the wildlife in Sitka Sound.  From the spawning herring to the feeding whales, you will enjoy an exciting and up-close experience with the food web at this time of year.  Hear from marine mammal biologists, historians, researchers, and other experts while enjoying a fresh, European-style breakfast buffet, donated by local businesses and friends of the Sitka Sound Science Center.

Aboard a catamaran from Allen Marine, we depart Crescent Harbor on Saturday, March 26th at 9:00 am and return by 12:00 pm.  Tickets are $55/person and will be available now online and this week at Old Harbor Books.

For more information, contact Sitka WhaleFest Director Mia Kuartei at (907) 747-8878, ext. 2 or whalefest@sitkascience.org.
