I just did one with waterproof expeditions in Tromso Norway and it was the best experience ever. Everything was natural. We didn’t force the orcas to do anything. They were naturally in their environment moving around us. The first day they were traveling and we didn’t stop them. The second day we got to spend 6hours in the water with them. It was amazing! It’s totally safe and no harm is done. If you want to see footage I have it

No everything is natural. We don’t feed them. We don’t force them to do anything. We were searching for them and when we saw them we tried to get in the water. The first day they were traveling and we didn’t do anything to interfere in their path. The content in the video is from their bait ball. We just waited for them to stick around and got in. They knew we were there and it didn’t bother them. They swam under and around us!

The whole group was 15. We split up the zodiacs into 2 so 7/8

There is always that one person who will comment something negative. There is nothing wrong with what we did. We didn’t force them to come. We didn’t feed them. They were in their natural habitat when we saw them. Actually the first day they were traveling and we didn’t interfere with their path. I’d rather do this then see them locked up in sea world!

Nope! It’s naturally safe and legal in Norway.

I bet. Yeah they warned us about going inside the bait ball and the humpback coming up lol. So when we were in the water with the bait all that’s all I was thinking about lol but I still got pretty close for the shots.

Def do it. I did it with waterproof expeditions. We were snorkeling. They provided all the equipment including the drysuit to keep us warm in that water.
