Grant's Pass, OR

A city located in the Rogue River Valley, one thing visitors definitely take note of in Grants Pass is the climate. In fact, the gigantic sign welcoming guests into the city proudly proclaims their motto: It’s the Climate. With summer highs fairly high (in the 90-degree range) and still drastic cool downs at night, it in some ways mimics a Mediterranean climate, right in Oregon’s Rogue Valley. Given their riverside location, many take to the outdoors as their principal form of recreation here. Fishing, canoeing and whitewater rafting are all extremely popular activities. While the lushness that comes with being a Rogue River Valley town affords the area some amazing homegrown fruits and vegetables—farmers markets are a Grants Pass staple.

What an amazing tour. We saw whales, dolphins and porpoises. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic. We could really tell they are very respectful towards the animals, we were able to see two humpbacks for nearly half an hour, everybody was silent, the engine was off and the crew was also in awe. Only when the whales left, the engine was back on and we also started moving again. We really felt like we had all the time in the world and we didn't disturb the animals.
