The Pacific Gray Whales Are Migrating North Right Now--and maybe you should too!


FORT BRAGG, Calif., March 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Fort Bragg, California and FloBeds.com are celebrating the 36th Annual Whale Festival, which honors the migration of the Gray Whale all the way from Baja back to its ancestral feeding grounds in the Bering Sea. What a perfect excuse for you to heed nature's call and get moving, migrating up or down the coast of the Pacific Northwest to spend the week in Fort Bragg, California this March 16th ? 18th.   See Whale Festival ticket info and the full list of activities.

FloBeds president and local city councilman, Dave Turner, and a first grade class learning about the Blue Whale skeleton with the Noyo Center

Why watch the whales in Fort Bragg? Not only does the small town boast a coastal trail perfect for whale watching?over three miles of walking and running paths along the coastal bluffs?but it is also home to the Noyo Center for Marine Science. The Noyo Center has in its collection the world's largest Orca on display (a 26ft articulated skeleton of a Killer Whale), and the skeleton of a 73ft Blue Whale. Last year alone, the Noyo Center brought marine science education to over two thousand kids in local schools. Education is the foundation of true ocean conservation.  And you can see the magic for yourself: the Blue Whale Skeleton will be on display for the 36th Annual Whale Festival! Join locals in a 5K run along the coastal trail, help preserve whale bones with an annual skeleton painting and preservation session, or just enjoy the local brewery, wineries, and artistry.

FloBeds, a local natural latex mattress manufacturer on the coast, is a proud sponsor of the Noyo Center. In honor of the whale festival, FloBeds is offering a five percent discount and a matched donation to the Noyo Center when you purchase one of their personally crafted latex mattresses with the code WHALE from March 12th  -16th .  Want to try the mattress while you're in town? Several inns and B&B's on the coast carry their beds, so you can sleep on it before you buy it. Otherwise, stop by their showroom on Redwood Avenue or visit their website to learn more.

But do you really need an excuse to marvel at one the earth's greatest creatures? Come join us to celebrate the Gray Whale in Fort Bragg, California!
