Whale-Watching

The waters of Cape Ann in and around Gloucester are a popular feeding area for several types of whales and other marine life. Not surprisingly, there are numerous whale-watching boat-tour companies in Gloucester that provide awe-inspiring views of many varieties of the big beasts—including humpback and fin whales, which can reach a length of 29 meters (95 feet). The peak season to spot them is between March and November; reservations are encouraged.
