OCEANSIDE, CA — Oceanside Adventures caught these amazing photos of some rare seabirds on a recent cruise.

For any seabird enthusiasts, we have been seeing some rare booby birds in our area over the past few weeks including this pair of Nazca boobies. https://ebird.org/species/nazboo1

Oceanside Adventures offers year-round whale and dolphin tours. Currently, the gray whales are migrating from December through April. We also see Fin whales and minke whales year-round. In summertime, we see the humpbacks and blue whales and we have 4 species of dolphins, so there is always something to see no matter what time of the year you go.
