Zodiac Wildlife Adventure Aug 30 Noon

Our Skipper Myles "Mountain Man" took the Prince of Whales zodiac "Jester" out of Victoria's picturesque inner harbour and out into sunny skies and calm seas. Our search was for Orca, Killer Whales. We headed East to the north end of San Juan Island. Here we caught up with some of the Southern Resident Orca of J pod. Myles identified each whale as it was spotted and filled the passengers with his wealth of marine wildlife knowledge. We enjoyed the Orca as they made their way along the shorline. Spy hops, tail slaps and breaching were taken in by our passengers. We even got to witness a "spiral breach" as one young Orca broke out of the water and spun as it breached. This was a magical afternoon on the water with Prince of Whales.
