My Edmonds News warmly welcomes our new sponsor, Puget Sound Express, offering half-day whale watching tours right from Edmonds. They guarantee you’ll see whales or your next trip is free. Gray whale tours are going on now through April 25, with daily departures at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Cruise at over 40 mph on the Chilkat Express to the spectacular San Juan Islands in a little over an hour. It’s the fastest whale-watching boat in the Northwest.

Each spring, migrating gray whales pass through the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound, providing an excellent opportunity to visit and learn about these amazing mammals. These tours run approximately two hours and the waters that you travel in are protected and usually calm. The tour must have a minimum of 15 passengers for a departure.
