Those who have been on multiple trips with us before know that every adventure is unique. No two days, routes, or encounters are the same. From the moment we leave the dock we’re on the search… and these are wild animals of course!
If wildlife-rich trips are for you, that’s what we do 🦭
NFL Sunday with the Bigg’s! If any team is looking for a new punter, the T75B’s are highly qualified 🏈
A friend sent us this video from his deck on Stuart Island! He walked out just in time to witness a harbor seal punt by the T75B pod of Bigg’s orcas. Now that’s a way to kickoff your Sunday 🦭
Just in from the water…Happy Labor Day from Bigg’s killer whale T137A “Jack”! Jack and other members of the T137’s decided to pay us a visit! Dead in the water with engines off, all we could do was watch in awe! Still deciding on your afternoon plans? With light winds, calm waters, and a good chance of orca whales this evening, join us on our last 3:30 PM trip of the season 🤩
Humpback action on yesterday’s afternoon adventure!
This humpback whale was especially surface active when we came onto scene! We watched as the whale slapped its tail and showed it’s flukes. The individual also did a few dramatic peduncle throws, launching it’s lower half through the air in a cartwheel-like movement! What an exciting afternoon, we’re soaking up these last 3:30 PM tours while they last 🐳
We’re back to blue skies after our trip to Tatooine 🌤️
The smoky skies made for wild backdrop while watching whales and wildlife these past few days. With air quality improved and blue skies ahead, we’re looking forward to our upcoming trips and some of the last 3:30 PM trips of the season.
Blue skies and Bigg’s killer whales ☀️
Yesterday’s 3:30 PM trip was outstanding! Calm waters, sunshine, sea lions, harbor seals, bald eagles, and to top it off a very active pod of Bigg’s. We watched as members of the T36A’s breached, tail slapped, spyhopped, and splashed at the surface. What an afternoon!
Artemis made it to Hawaii! She arrived safely in Honolulu and our Island Adventures and Hawaiian Adventures team is cruising her towards the Big Island. Kona here they come! 🌊🛥️

The Salish Sea is one of the largest and most biologically rich inland seas in the world, and we’re loving all the whales, wildlife, and spring weather so far this season!
