Just as likely as any week/month/time of year. There really isn't a season for whales in Cape May. Most whales sighted are im. humpbacks, and a few finbacks. They are individuals that feed around the mouth of Del. Bay. This past week there has been a finback kicking around and at least one humpback coming and going. Dolphin sightings have been good. Off this year are sea turtles...hopefully just a downturn for this year. The long term prognosis for sea turtles worldwide is not good. Best of luck if you go.
