We set out towards Race Rocks this morning during our 9.00am trip after receiving reports of Orcas sighted near Albert Head at 7.30am. We picked up the Transient Orcas a little to the South West of Race Rocks. The transients were soon identified as the T12's, and consisted of about 7 Orcas. We had one incredible spyhop very close to the rear of the boat (about 100m away), which left everyone speechless.
In the afternoon we headed back out West looking for the T12's but ended up finding a second group of 8 Orcas close to Otter Point. We observed a lot of foraging in kelp beds and many spyhops.
During our 2 trips today we also had another amazing encounter with Dalls Porpoises Bow riding!
