We saw Steller Sea Lions, Harbor Porpoise, Harbor Seals, and more.

We encountered several pods of Dalls Porpoise and experienced an amazing show of playfulness porpoising around the bow and playing in our wake.

Then while on the way to see a Minke Whale one of my guests spotted a blow and we reversed course to spend some time with a Humpback Whale until he or she crossed into Canadian waters. Then we moved on to view a Minke Whale before returning to Friday Harbor. A very beautiful day on the water.
