Pelican Feeding Show
Experience the quiet magic of the Pelican Feeding Show at San Remo's Marine Parade, where fog blankets the harbor in a soft, mysterious gray. Watch the stately pelicans gather on the sandy shore, their large forms silhouetted against the misty waterfront. The gentle lapping of the water and the muted morning light create an intimate setting that invites you to connect to nature’s serene rhythms. This tranquil spectacle offers nature lovers and curious travelers a soul-soothing escape wrapped in cool, wintry calm — a chance to witness wildlife up close in a subdued, contemplative atmosphere. Embrace the peaceful stillness and find inspiration in the delicate dance between sea, sky, and feathered guests.
Early morning hours during Winter months provide the best atmospheric fog and pelican activity.
Most videos filmed Jun during winter. August is moderate - a good balance of visitors and space.
