The Southern Resident Orcas: One of the Northwest’s Delights

Published by KC Dermody On February 25, 2017

We recently highlighted one of Washington State’s most popular attractions: whale watching through Puget Sound Express. The Southern Resident killer whales, often referred to as the “orcas of the Salish Sea,” are surely one of this region’s most impressive highlights.
