Friday, June 22nd

This morning we headed straight out to San Juan Island, with J-pod actively moving north. We met up with the pod near Lime Kiln Lighthouse and followed them along as they headed further north up Haro Strait. After leaving J-pod on our morning trip, the pod continued heading north which made our afternoon trip a nice long cruise. We met up with J-pod at Active Pass. The pod was in close formation and appeared to be resting. The whales kept close to the shoreline and did perform a few tail slaps and breaches during our visit. Our evening trip was welcomed with calm waters. With J-pod very far north, we decided to see what L-pod was up to. We met up with a few individuals of L-pod at False Bay. These individuals were a bit more spread out and we had a very nice pass by Mega, one of the large males in the pod.
