On this morning’s tour we traveled to Race Rocks where we found California and Stellar sea lions, Elephant and Harbour seals, eagles and oyster catchers.

By this afternoon J-Pod returned to our area and dazzled us with many breaches and playful gestures.

This evening we saw Transient orcas. Transients are known as the true “killer whales” because of their aggressive hunting behaviour. Race Rocks is a common feeding area as it inhabitants a large population of small marine mammals.
