Since 1979, Cape Ann Whale Watch has taken over three quarters of a million whale watching enthusiasts to view nature’s gentles in their natural habitat. They take visitors to Stellwagen Bank, a National Marine Statuary located just 12 miles off the coast of Gloucester, to see and learn about whales. Climb aboard the Hurricane II, the largest and fastest whale watching vessel north of Boston, for the experience of a lifetime! Cape Ann Whale Watch also offers a private tour, for up to 6 people. This whale watch company was named one of the top five whale watches in the United States by Joshua Horwitz, author of War on Whales. Enjoy free parking, no payment or meters required! Join Cape Ann Whale Watch as they celebrate their 46th year of whale watching!
