Gold Beach annual WINE, ART, AND MUSIC FESTIVAL is Saturday May 14 from 11-7, and Sunday May 15 from noon - 5. Come on over for this fun event, and take advantage of the WHALE OF A SPECIAL, read about it at the bottom of this post.
Mid May watch for the whales! Mid May is the time we often see the female whales with their offspring, heading north for the summer. This is one of my favorite whale watching times because during this trip the female whales hug the coastline, making up-close and special viewings.
From my own backyard I have seen whales so close that I could almost (it seems) reach out and touch them. I live along the beach in Nesika Beach, where the whales swim so close to shore and in such shallow water. You can see the detail of their body, you can see the mother and the calf, you can see as they roll over and play, when they swat their tail on the water, when they dive to feed. It is hard to get a photo of this experience because it is fleeting, and you never know when they will appear. But above is one shot I managed to get of the female peering above the water.
Come to the coast to witness this very special whale migration, I will give you a location where I often see whales very close to shore. Ask for the Whale of a Special, with weekday discounts of up to 20% (depends on the house) and weekend discount of up to 15% between good whale watching dates of May 5 through May 21. Bring a canned food for our local foodbank to take advantage of this Special! (See website for details).
