The afternoon trip for SuperCat found us in the north end of Haro Strait, by Turn Point, where L's were crossing Boundary, headed for Active Pass. A few active Dall's porpoises off Turn Point as well, but we had to depart and head back to Victoria. Our evening trip, with the crowd fresh off the Oosterdam cruise ship, found us venturing SW in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Captain Trev spotted a harbour seal in the water, 2 miles SW of Race Rocks, with a fresh red piece of salmon in its mouth. Pretty exciting. Once we were upon Race Rocks, we spotted a pair of Bald eagles on the south rock, lots of harbour seals, and 2 big elephant seals frolicking in the water beside the rocks (see photo close up). Active for elephant seals!
