Island Packers announces 2025 summer schedule with summer whale watching and landing & non-landing excursions from Ventura Harbor Village
In celebration of Summer and its 57th Anniversary last month, Island Packers, the official concessionaire to the Channel Islands National Park, is expanding its non-landing schedule to include Summer Whale Watching excursions from June – mid-September, 2025 to view some truly extraordinary, magnificent mammals. For information, visit www.islandpackers.com.or https://www.venturaharborvillage.com/event/summer-whale-watching-with-island-packers-2/2025-06-26/ and www.venturaharborvillage.com/directory/whale-watching/
Passengers on Summer Whale Watching trips, departing Ventura Harbor Village, have an excellent chance to view several whale species in the Santa Barbara Channel, who migrate there to feed on the abundant shoals of baitfish and krill.
Summer species that can be seen include blue whales, fin whales, and humpbacks, as well as marine life such as common dolphin, seals, and sea lions. Located in scenic Ventura Harbor Village, Island Packers invites visitors to plan on booking this “must-see” experience as part of seasonal summer fun for the entire family.
