Most of the time when we stand by the water at the ocean or a bay, we just see a calm surface. We know that there are things swimming under there – perhaps we see some minnows swimming by, or some crabs. Maybe even a sand shark or two. The really big creatures tend to be further out. But sometimes the big ones come closer to shore than we know. That’s why this video here is so cool.

Orcas, more commonly known as “killer whales” are one of the most stunning creatures I have ever laid eyes on. Their nickname isn’t really accurate though as these whales are quite friendly and harmless to most creatures in the sea, and humans as well. They are highly social animals and they travel in groups which can consist of 5 to 30 whales. They are said to be very intelligent and playful, often showing interest in boats that pass by and getting quite close to them. It would be a treat watching them in their natural habitat, and that’s probably what Louis Jobidon thought when he went solo kayaking near Hornby Island in British Columbia, Canada.
