Winter Whale Watching

When most people think of Virginia Beach, they don't think of humpback whales breaching out of the water with mouths wide open. Luckily for us, each year the Humpback whales migrate to the food-rich mouth of the Chesapeake Bay for their annual winter retreat. The peak season to catch a glimpse is in the wintertime, between January and mid-March. According to the Virginia Aquarium, visitors on their whale-watching boat trips are seeing the majestic creatures in action 100% of the time. Tours are offer daily during the peak of the whale watching season.
