🇺🇸 LA 🏝|Long Beach Whale Watching Tour – So Breathtaking! 🐬✨
Although this was called a “whale watching” tour 🐋, we didn’t actually see whales this time – but we did see large groups of dolphins! 🐬 And yes, dolphins are a type of whale too! While we weren’t lucky enough to spot a giant whale, watching these playful dolphins and capturing once-in-a-lifetime photos was more than enough to make the day special. 📸💙 We boarded the boat at The Pike Parking Structure in Long Beach – very convenient whether you’re taking an Uber or driving yourself. There’s even an outlet mall nearby 🛍️, perfect for a meal or some shopping before or after your tour! ⚠️ One important note: whale watching is on the open sea, and seasickness is real! We got extremely seasick – felt like a bad fever and, well… let’s just say it wasn’t pretty 🤢. Highly recommend taking motion sickness medicine in advance or staying inside the cabin instead of going up to the deck. But… I don’t regret a thing! Standing at the bow of the boat, feeling the sea wind 🌊, arms wide, eyes closed, knees bending with the waves – when I opened my eyes and saw the ocean spray and ripples below, it felt like I was flying 🕊️. That moment was pure magic. As the yacht sailed further into the ocean, the breeze grew cooler, and the animals swam more freely. It reminded me why protecting our oceans matters – so humans and animals can coexist with respect, love, and peace. 💙 Shoutout: Melinda, Taotao, Will… 💙💙 and Ethan 💙💙 #WhaleWatching #Dolphins #LongBeach #CaliforniaAdventure #OceanLife #SeaYouSoon
