With the incredible Spring weather arriving on the West coast the past two days, it has provided the best possible conditions to take a wild life adventure with Prince of Whales.With blue skies and plenty of sunshine for the 11am Zodiac trip, our experienced Skipper Mark, 'Mallard' headed us out into the Strait of Juan de Fuca in a south west direction. The seas were flat calm and visibility was exceptional. We had a report of 'ORCA' having been seen earlier. A trip to Race Rocks gave our guests views of the sleepy Steller Sea lions hauled out on a rock. Later we caught site of the Transient Killer whales milling around along the water front. They were heading east toward Trail Island. This was a nice big group of 'killer whales' with one big male easily recognised as T14, affectionately known as 'Pender' The T49As were with him as were others. We could see off in the distance a tiny calf who was enjoying its time with its family. An absolutely incredible experience for all our international and Canadian guests.Photos by Marie "Orca-Magic"
