Thank you to all our guests and naturalists who helped make 2011 a great season. We had some fantastic encounters with our resident Killer Whales, many Humpback Whales and even some Pacific White-sided dolphins. Reservations are now being taken for … Continue reading →

End of Season

Our season is coming to an end. We have had some incredible days on the water this season with Humpback whales, Minke whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, sea lions and, of course, our Resident and Transient Killer whales. Thanks to everyone who came out for a wonderful year and we hope to see you again. We have about one more week of operation and then we will close for the winter. In mid-April 2012 we will open up and hope for another successful year. We wish everyone the best over the holidays! Enjoy this picture from passenger Jeremias Mueller in August this year.

August Excitement!

August has been an action-packed month so far! Today we stumbled across a group of about 20 Pacific White-Sided dolphins – always a spectacular show. Earlier in the week we headed toward San Juan island to hang out with J-pod. As we descended into a thick blanket of fog, we were surprised by J17 (Princess Angeline – one of the whales seen in the movie “Free Willy”), her Daughter J28 (Polaris), and Polaris’ 2-year old calf, J46 (Star). Three generations of killer whales, all in one moment! We’ve also been fortunate enough to spot an adult humpback whale in the Gulf islands, as well as several groups of Transient killer whales lurking around the area (Harbour seals, beware!). With August off to such a great start, we’re excited to see what the rest of the month will bring!

Residents are back!

We have had our Resident Orca return home this month, which has made sightings great! The weather hasn’t been great so far this summer but that hasn’t stopped the whales from putting on great shows with breaching, spyhops, fishing and other exciting activities.

Great Sightings

Lots of Transient Orca around still and we even had a surprise visit from J pod, one of our resident pods. We are hoping for continued success this month!

So far so good!

We have enjoyed incredible success so far this season! Transient Orca seem to be all over the place and in large groups. Breaching, tail slapping, hunting sea lions, hopefully this success continues all year! To see more photo updates, visit our facebook page.

Season Underway!

Preparation for the 2011 Season is underway!

As spring approaches the team at Wild Whales is preparing for the 2011 whale watching season. We have our first trip of the year scheduled for April 15^th and in preparation we have some exciting announcements to share.

For 2011, we have launched a brand new website with more information and photos about our tours, our vessels and of course, our local wildlife! Not to mention a great new design and layout from our friends at Sharkbite Art + Design.

We will be updating the latest news on this site regularly with great sightings and stories from our tours throughout the season. You can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube or check out some of our photos on Flickr. It’s a great chance to get more information on our trips and to learn about some of the important conservation issues that face our local wildlife, and of course just to check out some amazing photos!

Reservations for the 2011 season are being taken, contact us by phone, email or through the ‘book online’ page of this site. We look forward to having you aboard!
