We saw J pod Southern Resident Killer Whales and the T65A’s Bigg’s Killer Whales.

Our first tour found us up in Boundary Pass with J Pod. They were making their usual trek to San Juan Island via Turn Point and Haro Strait. On the way back from seeing them we passed by the T65A’s.

On my second tour, we left the harbor and pretty quickly found ourselves with the T65A’s in San Juan Channel. After a couple of surfacings and realizing there was way to many private boats I decided to move on to see the Resident Orca in Haro Strait.

We first viewed J39 Mako for a while then moved further down the strait and saw J26 Mike and several others. On the morning tour, we saw J26 Mike and J27 Blackberry among others. We also had a glimpse of a Humpback Whale making its way through the pod.
