2017 dates are set and it’s time to book your spot on the annual 5-day birding tour covering the southernmost ABA area. We never know exactly what we’ll find, but it’s always an exciting search!

Target birding areas include deep-water canyons, underwater seamounts, and around islands of the southern California bight. From San Diego, you’ll travel north over the 9 Mile Bank, through the Channel Islands, and past Point Conception to Arguello Canyon, Rodriguez Dome, San Juan Seamount and wherever the seabirds lead us.

There’s lots of sea time for searching out rarities, chumming, and observing a variety of marine life during the four days at sea. Sperm whales and other deep-water whales, blue, fin, and humpback whales; a variety of dolphins; and sharks are commonly spotted.
