OPT Updates!
We at Oregon Pelagic Tours are excited to start our 2026 pelagic season! This year, we are not only offering our normal 8-hour pelagics ot of Newport (8/29, 9/20. 10/11, 12/5) and Garibaldi (9/13, 10/4), but have several special tours planned. All OPT trips have spaces available.

The first of these is a short, 6-hour tour out of Newport on July19th. This tour is ideal for those who still hope to see albatross and other typical seabird species, but don't want to spend a full day on the ocean. We would love to see a few more birders on this trip.

Next up is the All-Women's Pelagic out of Garibaldi on August 16th. This trip is currently full, but we are accepting names for the waitlist, as not all participants have paid, and therefore one or two spots may still open up.

The third special trip is a 10-hour Newport trip on September 27th, which will offer county listers the opportunity to visit Lane County. This trip is a little over half-full and needs more sign-up to be sure to go.

More more information, please visit he Schedule and Reservations pages of the Oregon Pelagic Tours website.

Some photos from our ā€œbirds, wine and cheeseā€ tour. We started in Corsica, and are in the mountains now. Today was amazing, as we got very good looks at all our Corsican endemics: Corsican Nuthatch, Corsican Finch, Marmora Warbler, Moltoni’s Warbler and while not an endemic, great views of Lammergeier (Bearded Vulture). Amazing food and wine at lunches and dinners. Sorry, birding friends, no great bird photos.

Marine mammals as well as pelagic birds are always a highlight on a Holland America "repositioning" cruise off the West Coast (San Diego to Vancouver, BC, April 2026).

Featured below is an adult Pomarine Jaeger and a pod of Dall's Porpoises.
