Captain Shaun slipped the Ocean Magic out from Victoria's Inner Harbor and headed us east in search of Marine Wildlife. We soon found harbor porpoise as we made our way across Haro Strait on our way to San Jaun Island. Here we spotted Orca. The Resident Orca part of J pod and K pod. These fish eating Orca were milling around the west side of the Island, working the water for their diet of Salmon. Our First Mate Casey filled our passengers with knowledge as we viewed the magnificent Killer Whales. The sun was out, the seas calm, just a special adventure on the water with Prince Of Whales.

Most of the images on the blog are shot with a 400 mm telephoto lens. Because of our restrictions around wildlife (100+ meters), we use powerful lenses to better share orca activity that passengers see on their trips. Keep in mind this also heavily compresses space between objects. We also crop images for best blog viewing.
The videos are generally shot in wide angle and are very realistic to what the eye sees on the boat. Please enjoy the photos for the telephoto view, and the videos for a boat based, real life passenger view.
