Museum of Science Whales | Tohorā
Purchase Whale Watch & Whales | Tohorā Combination Ticket
Here’s an incredible opportunity to dive deeper into the fascinating world of whales. Visit the inspiring new exhibit Whales | Tohorā at Boston’s Museum of Science. Through a unique blend of interactive science and storytelling, you’ll discover the whale-riding traditions of the South Pacific, learn about the origin of whales, gaze at colossal whale skeletons, and more.
Then, thanks to a specially priced combination ticket, you can see these ocean giants up close and personal aboard a Boston Harbor Cruises’ whale watch. BHC’s high-speed catamarans are the fastest, most comfortable way to view the ocean’s fascinating and magnificent creatures. They get you to and from the feeding grounds in less time means you get to spend more time actually watching the whales.
Professional researchers from the Whale Center of New England are onboard for every trip to provide narration. They'll teach you about everything from whale behavior and migration patterns to the local ecology so you can better understand our deep-sea friends. Check out our Photo Gallery and some recent whale watch video footage to see the fun. To learn more about the Museum of Science’s Whales | Tohorā exhibit, click here.
