Splitfin Orca Surfaces Next to Expedition Boat || ViralHog

Occurred on January 30, 2026 / Bremer Canyon, Western Australia, Australia

"This Orca (distinctive due to a split in its dorsal fin) slowly escorted the boat for about 5mins, breaking the water multiple times just metres from the Expedition vessel. A phenomenal view of its arched back and blowhole.
It was part of a 22-strong pod living in the Bremer Canyon area of the Southern Ocean, but 'Splitfin' seemed more comfortable and curious than the rest.
We joined an 8hr Orca Expedition, with a marine biologist onboard (doing research), and a limited number of guests.
We were so far out at sea that you could not see any land." Credit: Judith Teall
