From world famous beaches to rugged mountains and ancient old growth forests, California has it all. For someone planning a California motorhome rental road trip, this can be a bit overwhelming. At Expedition Motorhomes, we like to remind people to take their time, hone in on a few destinations, and not rush through something they are enjoying. The beauty of planning a trip with California RV rentals is that you can adjust your plans on the fly. If the ocean enamors you or your traveling partners, however, we would recommend putting in some time to whale watch. California has nearly 850 miles of coastline, and much of it provides perfect opportunities to park your California motorhome rental and look for whales.

Whale Watching in Southern California

If your California RV rentals road trip itinerary has you heading to the sunny south end of the state, consider taking a day to look for whales on the waters off San Diego. From December to March, more than 25,000 gray whales move into the area from Alaska enroot to Baja, California. While January is the peak-viewing season, you can lay eyes on these magnificent creatures throughout the winter and spring months. If you don’t get to spot a whale, you will still enjoy the beautiful beaches, fine dining, and laid back vibe of San Diego and the surrounding community. Not too bad for a consolation prize!

Whale Watching on the Central Coast

Central California is a worthy California motorhome rental destination on its own, but if you can tack on some whale viewing as well then this could very well be your trip of a lifetime. The area around Monterey Bay is a whale watching hotspot, as gray whales, orcas, and dolphins can often be seen on migration from December to April and humpback and blue whales join the mix from April to December. Like San Diego, the surrounding area also provides plenty of opportunities to explore. The beaches, mountains, and old growth forests of Central California are certainly worth a visit.

Whale Watching in San Francisco and North

If your California RV rentals road trip plans are a bit more ambitious and have you heading to the northern reaches of the state you, too, can look for whales off the coast. Take some time off of the road to book a wildlife-viewing cruise to look for more gray whales and humpback whales on migration in the waters off the Northern Californian coast! No matter where your California motorhome rental road trip takes you, you can make time to look for some of our planet’s most magnificent creatures. Book a rental with Expedition Motorhomes today, then start looking at reservations for whale watching cruises that align with your itinerary. If you plan on spending time on our beautiful coast, we guarantee a day on the water will be one well spent!

It was awesome. It was so great. It was so fantastic. We loved the RV. It was so accommodating. It was only three of us: [me] my husband and my son and we had a wonderful time. Thank you for renting to us and we will definitely be renting again.

Chris

From Toronto, Canada. We came down to Expedition to pick up an RV for a special surfing vacation for my son here who turned 15 this week. I gotta tell ya, it’s been an awesome experience. We went up the coast to Santa Barabara and down. We had perfect sites of the beach; looking at the ocean. He got a chance to experience surfing the California way – an overall great experience. RV was just the way to go. Made it a beautiful experience for us. The people at Expedition were perfect; helped us out throughout… were very kind and generous and we just had a great vacation because of it. So I recommend anyone whose thinking about it… Definitely call Expedition. You’ll enjoy it and you won’t regret it.

We flew from Europe and rented a motor home from ExpeditionMotorHomes.com. And, it was a fantastic experience from start to end. When we arrived, we had… the staff was very friendly; taught us how to use the motor home. They had videos online you can practice with and look at. And the actual trip, the quality of the motor home was perfect. This was the first time for my family and I and it will not be the last. We will be doing this again and obviously from the same supplier because everything from start to finish was perfect.

I have rented from this company seven times in the last eight years. They do an amazing job. Most recently, I had errored on my departure date (I should have looked at the contract when they sent it to me!) and when I arrived a day early, they accommodated me. Thank you, Matt, for making a year without Martin easy! I recommend this company to anyone wanting to rent an RV. It’s so much easier than you think.

The Expedition Motorhome family took great care of our family. This is our third straight year renting trailers and RV’s from Expedition and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. They are a small shop with big customer service. The RV’s are in great condition on the inside and under the hood. We drive to the Tahoe area from LA every year and they make the long haul with no problems. We camped with other families who rented from other vendors and had nothing but problems. See you next year!

We had a great experience with Expedition Motor Homes. My family and I rented an RV for a weekend camping trip, something we had never done before. The staff was extremely helpful and informative, and everything went smoothly. The RV was in great working order, very clean and great looking. We will definitely rent from the again in the future!

This was our first rental from Expedition. Everything went smoothly. They had excellent customer service from the beginning to the return. The RV we rented was in great condition, with the exception of a few minor issues. These issues didn’t cause any trouble, and I know they will have them fixed for the next renter. We are already looking forward to our next RV vacation, and we will be sure to use Expedition!
