Beautiful Orca's in New Zealand part 2

[@joaniewaller6504]

The water is so clear you can see them perfect. What a amazing place, so magical.

[@samanthaspsychiccabin8354]

I saw orcas just a few weeks ago, the experience of a lifetime! (This is the resident pod by the way)

[@RunawayKiwi]

New Zealand orca are constantly on the move, so you just have to spend a lot of time on the water anywhere on the coast and hope for the best. I saw this same pod in January 2011 in Waihau Bay, which is halfway down the North Island from Rangiputa. In the same area I've seen orca a few times (nothing like this, though) and it has never been the same pod.

[@RunawayKiwi]

These videos are so awesome! You're so lucky to have this experience :) Thank you also for having your motors off and not chasing the orca or trying to swim with them, it shows real respect for the animals and is probably why you had such a long and calm encounter with them. :)

[@tsalickis]

They are such beautiful majestic creatures. I wish I could've experienced something like this. Gorgeous male orca, although looks like he might have been ostracized from the pod. The baby though looks amazing and in the first video is so playful.

So beautiful one my favorite animals 😍😘 you just know the one killer whale with large fin is a huge male.

[@roxanneweichinger9318]

These guys blend in really good with the sea bed! In some parts of the video I can only see the whales’ dorsal fins!

[@ScottAndrew]

the orca,the colors,.. the experience

[@shanebarnet1311]

one thing about Orcas is its Always safe to go in the water, cause we all know sharks will bounce the moment they hear them lmao

[@Colstonewall]

Hey, you laugh at the end of your comment, but you're 100% correct. I would feel completely safe in the water with ORCA around. They have a long history of protecting and even saving humans from Sharks and drownings. And even Great Whites are terrified of them and will flee the area.

[@shanebarnet1311]

Chris Kavanagh i only laugh because its ironic that one can be safe in the water just because a more dominant predator is in the area. But yes you're right, They show campassion for us ugly hairless apes, trying to swim in their ocean. An orca has never attacked a human in the wild. EVER.

[@shanebarnet1311]

Chris Kavanagh ive been fortunate enough to share the water with these amazing animals many times. Im from tofino bc which is home to some of the biggest pods in the world.

[@laurabonnell6039]

Oh yes I love them ..they are so smart. This is how it should be not in a park for humans intertament.

[@rogerrabbit80]

@@shanebarnet1311 There is one case, in 1979, where a surfer got bitten by an orca. The speculation is that a young orca mistook the guy in a wetsuit for a seal.

[@ScottAndrew]

I want to be there!!

[@tinusels1]

We were in Rangiputa

[@dancross982]

How fortunate you were to be able to experience that.

[@ooohnooo8029]

[@aoifeno1]

Fantastic lucky you where in New Zealand is this?

[@laurabonnell6039]

Sharks said I'm out LMFAO 😂

[@Елена-п5в6ь]

У касаток завораживающая красота.

[@candymartinez4570]

....AMAZING.FOOTAGE...LUCKYDUCKS😉😉😉😉😉!!!!!!

[@tinusels1]

Video was taken in Rangiputa

[@blondegirlsezthis8798]

Orcas conferrencing underwater: "Should we roll them? I love their high pitched singing when they are pooping their pants!"

[@spencerborelli3352]

Can you guys make more videos of the killer whale please 😁

[@simo-dv5xk]

Is there a pod that frequent these waters?

[@jenniferperez3772]

I would like to know as well. Where in New Zealand is this?

[@calicoya]

Feels like.. they are seeking human interaction.. :')

[@allgood6760]

That is what you call a magic moment. 👍🇳🇿

[@FreedomForOrcas]

Mental note: Go to Rangiputa :D

[@bari2883]

Any body else think the males dorsal fin looks like a seal sitting up out of the water?

[@EU741852]

The male its Ben !

[@guva2212]

Sorye Moments 100% sure this isn't Ben.Ben's dorsal fin sliced when run over a boat in 1998! Now half of the fin folds permanently over his left side.

[@Glad2BGolden]

These Orcas seem like they are waiting for the humans to jump in, so they can have a snack.

[@dancified1161]

TruthFan orcas don't eat humans.

[@laurabonnell6039]

They don't attack humans, they probably looking for food. But humans not on their food menu

[@michaelnorton920]

They may seem and act like they playful but I wouldn't get in the water and mess with them they might think that you're cool but you don't want to get too close the point is don't get comfortable

[@collie0321]

I wish they would stop feeding on stingrays! They love them but it's killing them :/

[@laurabonnell6039]

Oh well they are on their food menu. It's the way of life they have to eat just like any other animals
