Approximately 20,000 whales migrate southward past the center from mid-December to end of January each year. The same number migrate northward, but are distributed throughout mid-March through the first week of June. Gray whales are the most commonly sighted whales year round along the Oregon Coast.
The best time to see mother whales with calves off the Orange Coast is March through April. At birth, a gray whale measures about 15 feet long and weighs nearly a ton. It may mature to 46 feet, longer than a school bus, and to a weight of 36 tons.
