Whales Spotted for the First Time This Season in Cape May

Even though the beaches of South Jersey are known for dolphin and whale sightings, it's still fun to talk about them when someone was able to capture some really good photos.

And that's exactly what happened this weekend. Whales were spotted off the coast of Cape May.

Sure, people have seen one or two during the winter, but whenever spring officially hits this region, it's normal for all the animals to start making themselves known.

The whales were spotted from the Cape May Whale Watcher, a dolphin and whale tour boat based off of Wilson Drive in Cape May.

The post to Facebook says that the captains were trying to get close enough to get a glimpse of a humpback whale that was just a bit south of the Cape May coastline.
