Previous studies indicate that the southward migration through Oregon lasts about two months (Herzing and Mate 1984). However, 90% of the whales migrated past Yaquina Head between December 19 and January 23. The northward migration through Oregon is divided in two phases. Phase A, which comprises adults without calves, begins during the last week of February with a peak in mid-March.
Giants Migrate Along the Sonoma Coast and Bodega Bay. The epic migration of whales peaks from January through May, but is visible during much of the year. Each year gray and blue whales travel south from the Chukchi Sea near Alaska and down to Baja California for winter, then back north for the summer feeding season. A great vantage point is the Ocean Overlook at Bodega Bay Head, or various whale watching boat trips launching from the local area.
