Ocean Magic Adventure Sept 6 Noon

Under partial cloudy skies, we headed south out of the harbour with Captain Brad at the helm of the noon Ocean Magic. We were in search of Sea Lions, Harbour Seals, Elephant Seals, a Humpback Whale and some Transient Orca which had been reported in the area. Both these illusive whale mammals we found. They appeared to be resting for the most part, cruising slowly through the almost still water on a beautiful September day. The sunbathing, pinnipeds we found at Race Rocks, a protected marine, ecological reserve. Always a joy to be on the water this time of year. Photos by Marie "Orca-Magic"
