My family and I are thinking about going whale watching down in Monterey Bay tomorrow. We've had some pretty nasty storms of late, but they seem to have passed for the most part
We are not used to being on boats in general and I worry about sea sickness etc. Not really worried about safety, the whale watching boats are big and go out all of the time.
I know there are very detailed charts on ocean conditions, but I have no idea how to interpret them.
Can anyone more knowledable about sailing tell me if Sunday would be a good day to be on the water in Monterey, CA?
Here's the info I've found - but again I don't really know what I'm looking for
