Dockside Charters offers exciting whale watching and sight seeing excursions on a daily basis, weather permitting. Starting in late December we offer 1 1/2 hour cruises, during the migration it takes longer to find the whales. In springtime we run 1 hour cruises. We take our excursions on the biggest, cleanest, best maintained fleet of Delta Charter boats on the coast.
The boats decks are elevated above the water enough to provide excellent lines of sight for viewing. They have cabins with inside seating, seating out on deck and you can move all the way around the boat on deck. The boats have access doors so there is no climbing up steps and over railings, simply walk on and walk off.

Report
Dockside will not overload it's boats. Remember your last charter experience when you were elbow to elbow with folks you didn't know? You will be comfortable on Dockside's uncrowded boats and you will get to know your crew and have the assistance you may need in a timely manner. Fishing is not "FUN" on a rough ocean.
Tips for Trips
Report
All fishing tackle and equipment is provided including bait. Life jackets are available in case of emergency. Life jackets for children are available but please bring your own for your child's comfort as the life jackets onboard are for emergency purposes and are big and bulky. Complementary coffee provided on all boats.
Ethics
Report
Given the problems the Chinook and some of the Coho stocks are having we need to do everything we can to safeguard all of the fish, whether we can keep them or not. There are some measures we can take to protect the fishery. First, identify the fish you have on to make sure you can keep it (Fin Clipped Coho) before you ever net it.
Whale Watching
Report
We have had an excellent summer whale watching season and we are thankful we could share it all with our clients. At that time the whales will be well into the southern migration. Depoe Bay is the Whale Watching Capital and Dockside Charters offers Premier Whale Watching Excursions. Dockside Charters runs whale watching excursions on a daily basis during our whale watching season.
Whale Watching
Report
Whales can be seen from several different viewpoints along the Oregon Coast, but the best view is from one of our fifty-foot Delta charter boats! Come aboard and find out why Depoe Bay is the self-proclaimed whale watching capital of the Oregon Coast. Whale watching is a year-round activity here at Dockside Charters.
