Whale Watching Trips. Whale watching in Maine is more than a spectator sport; itâs a connection with nature. The worldâs largest living creatures can be found feeding and frolicking just 20 miles off the Maine coast. The best time for Maine whale watching begins in mid-April when hungry whales arrive to feast in local waters rich in sand eels, copepods, plankton, and fish. In October, theyâll head south toward warmer seas.
