September 25 – October 1
With winter weather on the horizon, our season is starting to wind down, but the whale sightings are not! We saw whales on all 6 tours this week including killer whales on 4 of our 6 tours, and humpback whales on 3 tours as well. I think my favorite orca whale encounter of the week […]
September 18 – September 24
All we can say at this point is, the killer whale sightings continue to be off the hook! We saw orcas on all 6 of our tours this week. We are very excited to see Orca Behavior Institutes end of the year numbers of Bigg’s killer whale sightings in the Salish Sea this year. I’m […]
September 11 – September 17
What a wonderful week of (mostly) calm winds and awesome adventures in the Salish Sea! We had killer whale sightings on 7 of our 8 tours this week, along with some wonderful humpback whale encounters. We had visits from the T075B, T018, T137, T037A, T060, and T123 families of killer whales this week. Although it […]
September 4 – September 10
September whale watching in Anacortes is here! September is easily my favorite month of the year to be on the water…not necessarily because the whales are better, or more plentiful, but because the boat traffic dies down after Labor Day, and most of the time the wind is very calm. We encountered all four species […]
August 28 – September 3
Anacortes whale watching was amazing again this week. Our incredible stretch of orca whale sightings continued this week as we had visits from the T059, T137, T037A, T099, and T065 families of orcas. This is easily the best stretch of killer whale sightings I’ve ever experienced in my career in whale watching here in the […]
August 20- August 27
The amazing orca whale watching continued this week as we encountered killer whales on 9 of our 10 tours. We had visits from the T060, T099, T036A, T069, T046B1, and T065A families. It’s been really awesome catching up with the T60 family on multiple occasions, many of which we’ve been able to witness a few […]
August 14- August 20
Holy orcas!!! This week was perhaps the best stretch of orca whale watching I have experienced in 10 years of driving boats professionally. We encountered orcas on all 10 of our tours this week. We had visits from the T075B, T077, T018, T101, T036A, T038, T046, T073A, T099, T034, T037, T060 and T069 families of […]
August 7- August 13
Summer whale watching in Washington is going by fast! We are trying to soak up every minute of our whale and wildlife encounters while we are on the water! This week we had some great killer whale and humpback encounters. We had a humpback whale named “Yogi” hanging around the San Juan Islands a lot, […]
July 31- August 6
August whale watching in the San Juan Islands started off with a bang with plenty of whales around this week! We sighted killer whales on six out of twelve tours this week, and humpbacks on 8 out of 12, and we also had a few great minke whale encounters! In the orca department, we had […]
July 24- July 30
It was quite the mixed bag of whale watching in the Salish Sea this week, with some great humpback encounters, killer whale encounters, and two tours where we didn’t see any whales at all! This week we had visits from the T034, T037, T065B, and T137 families of killer whales. The highlight though, was an […]
