Playtime – 5/12/21

Today we had clear skies and beautiful encounters…

We have found orcas close to Skjervøy, but they did not seem to be in the mood to be near the boat. Therefore, we went searching for another group and let those guys be themselves

After a short drive, we found 3 orcas playing and socializing together. There seemed to be a younger male having fun with 2 other orcas with small fins, possibly females.

They became interested in the boat and as we were alone with them, they approached us quite close multiple times.

Sometimes we saw them swimming upside down, spy-hopping, jumping, throwing their tails. It was quite fun to watch.

There were more orcas in the area, but most of them were resting. After approximately an hour a fully grown male has joined the party and then all 4 of them were playing together

We have made amazing video footage about their playtime together

Enjoy!
