Weatherproof coat and binoculars packed, I was feeling very excited for a serious 48 hours of whale watching. Little did I know I was about to have one of the most thrilling whale-watching experiences of my career so far.
Can you believe, over 2 days, we spotted a whopping 400+ cetaceans! Sightings included everything from the unmistakable fin whale, pods of 30+ individual pilot whales and even the charismatic Cuvier’s beaked whale.
The combination of inspiring and passionate people, a sense of community onboard and the value of ORCA's work – is what made my experience truly unforgettable! After my trip with ORCA, I will never look at the ocean in the same way again.
