Orcas

Orcas are commonly seen in Sitka, Alaska. While there isn't a resident pod in Sitka Sound, transient pods are frequently spotted. Orcas travel in pods, which are family groups ranging from a few to over 15 members. These marine mammals are known for their distinctive black and white markings and opportunistic hunting habits.

Orcas

Beautiful orcas sent from China. Of the country’s 22 captive orcas, 15 were imported from Russia’s Sea of Okhotsk and seven were captive-born. Most of China’s orcas were only put on display in fall 2023, in a brand-new facility in Zhuhai called Chimelong Spaceship.😞

Olympic National Park

Olympic National Park is on Washington's Olympic Peninsula in the Pacific Northwest. The park sprawls across several different ecosystems, from the dramatic peaks of the Olympic Mountains to old-growth forests. The summit of glacier-clad Mt. Olympus is popular with climbers, and hiking and backpacking trails cut through the park's rainforests and along its Pacific coastline. Olympic waters are home to resident orca pods, or family groups, meaning they stay in the cool waters all year long. Transient, or migrating, pods will also travel along the coast of the peninsula as they hunt for prey throughout the sea in varying times of the year.

San Juan Islands

The San Juan Islands are in the heart of the Salish Sea, home to five different types of whales, making the archipelago one of the best places in the world to see whales in the wild. Well-known for orcas, there are two ecotypes,the fish-eating Southern Resident pods and mammal-eating Bigg’s killer whales. Other whales include humpbacks, minkes, and grays. Though it’s possible to see whales here year-round, the best months are April through October, especially for orcas.
