Day 2 - Part 4 August 9th. 

Just north of Hope Island, where we anchored for the evening in Bull Harbour.

This Humpback only jumped once while I was on the bow.

I was able to get 3 quick shots off, last one was just a splash

Next stop... Japan

After we tried a little halibut fishing, we were heading to Bull Harbour when we notice some commotion in the water, upon further inspection we found Pod of Sea lions.  

None of us had seen anything like it, they were playing, diving, and jumping in the air, they were entertaining us. These guys were swimming right up to me while I was on the bow, but I waited just a bit too long and they dove under the boat. 

They waited until I was putting the camera away, then they would do somersaults in the air.

Heading towards Port Hardy to Fuel up, we came across another pod of Orca which were enjoying a peaceful day out, just like we were. 

Looks like mom and little one

Since we are starting our another adventure tomorrow, exploring the waterways from Vancouver to Shearwater on the "Netta Jean ". We felt a Breaching Humpback was an appropriate photo to get the adventure started!  Our trip will be taking us approximately 400 nautical miles up the West Coast of British Columbia,  Weather permitting we will be in Hakai Pass by Monday morning, please follow our progress, as we will be  sharing stories and photos of our journey. Cheers,
