Whales And Dolphins Swimming Around Powell River Area Waters

October 15, 2009 | Posted by Robin

A pod of 5 orcas (killer whales) were observed between Grant Reefs and Harwood Island. The whales were identified as being mammal-eating ‘transients’, as opposed to fish-eating ‘residents’.

A pod of perhaps 100 of Pacific White Sided Dolphins was observed a short distance from the harbour in Powell River.
