Seeing is believing when it comes to viewing the wildlife that frequents the nutrient rich waters of Vancouver Island. Today our guests from Germany, Mexico, Winnipeg, Ontario and Victoria headed out on the 10am Zodiac to get a glimpse of that wildlife. Our skipper Mark, took us east and then north up Haro Strait to find those illusive ' ORCA '. The sharp eyes of our experienced skipper caught sight of them close to Piers Island. We watched these incredible mammals moving slowly through the water. Three large male Transient Orca were identified as T14, T 30A and T11A. It was interesting to see some of the family groups together. Harbour Seals, Harbour Porpoise and Bald Eagles were also seen on our return. The incredible scenery along the way made this trip very special.
