Orcas at Eagle Point San Juan Island WA
When this pod of Orcas cruised by my boat I knew it was the end of the day's salmon fishing. The big male's tail slapping (at about the 1:00 mark) was clearly a sign that he wanted me out of their territory. There is a final breach at about the 2:35 mark. I'm aware of the regs regarding keeping distance from Orcas. I shut down my trolling engine and brought in my gear as soon as I noticed them at several hundred yards distance. The pod seemed to be all around me and, quite frankly, I was so fascinated that I turned on my camera instead of motoring away immediately. A small commercial whale watch boat came by to make sure I was aware of the rules.

That was a huge male by your boat ! The males have the straight dorsal fins !!
Hey rontukwila, do you have an email address at which we could contact you regarding this video? We would be interested to discuss a license to use this video if this is generally possible? (i.e. via email) 🙂 Cheers, Felix
You were breaking the law being that close. I hope the statute of limitations has expired
💙🐳💙🙂💖
Really great, thrilling experience thanks for sharing 🙏
great video
I ever seen Before!
They Look scary. But there friendly.
Whoa Pod of Killer Whales.
All these Orcas need to be killed, and turned into oil. We need to put a stop to Orcas attacking fishing boats.
Bravo 👏👏👏 ,é lindo, vê-las soltas n natureza!!
They're so beautiful, and that's a beautiful thing to capture. I've seen real footage, orcas in pods, attack great White sharks. They will not let any type of shark, in those islands. Which is why sharks will take off extremely fast, in fear, of our beautiful killer whales..🐋 🙏 😎 ⛵
What amazing creatures, how lucky you were to be there at the right time, great video thanks for sharing
예수는 십자가에서 피흘려 죽으심으로 인하여 그대의 죄와 저주를 해결했습니다. 그분이 무덤에서 부활하셔서 사탄의 권세를 깨뜨렸습니다. 그대가 예수를 믿으면 죄와 사망의 법에서 영원히 해방되며 하나님의 자녀가 됩니다. 예수를 믿고 영접하세요. 그분은 창주주 하나님입니다.
Wie ist es überhaupt möglich, dass ein Orca Luftsprünge machen kann ? Wie können so viele Tonnen, die Schwerkraft überwinden ? Ich staune, denn Geschwindigkeit, und/oder Kraftaufwand (Newton)... ist gigantisch WIE ist so was möglich ?
do you have any website ? thats is the best pointe en San Juan to watching Orcas? thank you
great...thanks for uploading
💖💖💖
How actually does one go about getting in on a killer whale-worshipping outting like this one?
オスのシャチに威嚇されてましたね～😅
Thank you for your valuable work !🙂🐋 I would like to share a music here that has to do with this very topic... The song is called Luna Express - Free Orca Long Mix...🎶 ua-cam.com/video/UKD2ct972qw/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ORAKELRECORDS It even features a real free whale jumping in the water in minute 05:23...🐳 Together For the freedom of whales and other marine life ! 🐳
That looks for me a little aggressive, like :"get out of here" The tailslapping doesn't mean good things.
Best footage I've seen of my most beloved creature, the playful, friendly, unstoppable 0RC∆
These are residents, right?
I could watch them all day!!
This is why I won't buy a kayak...
😱 their tails are really so powerful. Amazing ! 🐳🐳
Soooo jelly🤣 You're a lucky, lucky man!
Amazing!!!
1:24 that particular moment breached beyond all our expectations
I think they were trying to splash you.
Orca jumps and say SUPRISE!!!!
They were jumping out sideways to get a good look at the boat this is such cool footage thank you for sharing
I was thinking they were hunting. Tail slapping stuns their pray, & maybe breaching does too?
Beautiful
oh my god, if I saw those orcas that close, I’d cry lol. So beautiful

These idiots amazed by them jumping and tail slapping when they're really angry and trying to intimidate They even sound like they're upset and growling SMH.
Вот это класс
Hi! I know this video is old, but this family is called the J11s! The big male you saw was J27 Blackberry, and he was probably travelling with his mom, J11 Blossom, his brother J39 Mako, and his sister J31 Tsuchi. These guys are Southern Residents, of which there are currently only 75! You were incredibly lucky to have this encounter with them.
Thanks for that!
I know this pod! they visit frequently up here in BC after they visit WA
Can somebody of the experts help me a little please. I am working with horses since 35 years and the communication is with body language. Am I wrong?? This tailslapping TO the boat looks for me like :"get out of here" or "you are disturbing us"??? I have seen so many videos where the orcas react friendly, are coming to the boat. That's a big difference in the body language, am I wrong???
@@horse-lover68 hitting the water with the tail is a sign of discontent among whales. But what exactly angered the whale is difficult to understand.
@@johnshepard6851 Thank you!!! 👍 Of course they are much smarter than f. e horses, that's why it is so much more difficult to understand why (I think). It's hard enough to understand the body language of horses, the dolphin fam must be much harder. Interesting is: when horses are swinging their tails so much it is often a sign of pain, aggression, discomfort and so on, almost the same and horses are pre animals, Orcas apex predictors. Learning to communicate and to understand them is faszinating for me. Best whishes from Austria 🇦🇹 👍
That was so awesome! I dont know how I have lived in Washington my entire life of 31 years and never see. An orca. I am going to San Juan islands this year just for this. Mark my words!
I think it was hunting salmon when it tail slapped.
HUMAN: "They are beautiful!" NEARBY SEALS: "Run Forrest, RUN!"
It's good to be the King. They fear nothing and even play with their food! I wouldn't swim with them just in case one's in a bad mood but my god they are perfect animals.
you can call those 2 #1Rock & #2Roll cause they wanted to make some noise : )
I see there hunter probably not getting enough to eat
Soon to be gone forever
Rthat's a message to you. Move back a little
There is a video clip by a Norwiegen fellow that explains most of what Orcas are doing...a good clip
That was really cool! I have seen it in person and there’s just no words to describe it. And unfortunately, you can keep your required distance from them, but you can’t keep them from coming to you. And when they got as close as they did, you’re not supposed to motor away right away anyway, but rather wait until it’s safe after they have moved past. But I’m sure you already knew that. 😁
