Humans: Wanna go watch orcas at the beach? Orcas: Wanna go watch humans at the shallows?

We see orcas quite a bit here in the Puget Sound. They're always coming up to boats and kayaks. If they see people on the shore they'll come close to get a look, I think they like looking at us as much as we like seeing them.

Thanks for uploading! This is the way these majestic creatures are meant to be observed and appreciated... not confined in relatively small tanks, separated from their families/pods, turning tricks (for dead fish) for paying customers.

The thing is, orcas aren’t programmed to eat dead things - they’re hunting mammals who prefer their food live and fresh. Not only are SeaWorld neglecting and abusing their orcas, they are also starving them! No wonder they attack people - if lack of food can stop a human brain working properly, who knows how badly it affects orcas?

Well captured . Awesome to see the Sting Ray airborne ( appx 30 secs ) Thanks for posting :)

Magazine Bay, Maraetai. Filmed off the wharf. Nice shot Paul. We see the orcas a bit over in Beachlands too :)

I just saw a video shot from the beach of this very same sighting. Great sighting! The stingray escaped and swam up the beach, just at the shoreline. Very smart stingrays! Gorgeous orcas!💖🐬🐬🐬💖

What an incredible video! That stingray at 0:29s was looking a little worried!

This gentle giants are Very friendly, it's time to have ourselves a drone so that we can watch them, good view 😍😍😍

What Envy? And besides, nobody comes to meet him, which is what the orcas have gone to the beach. The stupidity of the "killer Orca" in incredible fashion. Greetings.

Mother Orca... these are the creatures that are eating our fish, when there's none left we may have to start eating them! Wouldn't that be a turn about... hope it doesn't come to that. Orcas in the artic are already suffering due to over fishing! Other than that a lovely video!

Wtf are you talking? Orcas know they must not to start killing people, they would be hunted to extinction then. Older orcas still remember days of whaling when thousands of them were killed each year by whaling ships. That's why they usually are avoiding people and in some parts of world( Indonesia, Grenland, Innuits in Canada) still are hunting them.

Yes

So playful orca's

Having seen film of Orcas taking adult Seals off a beach, I wouldn't have wanted to be quite as close as those spectators were.

The hunting behavior you’re referring to is localized to only 1 Pod in Patagonia where 2 male individuals created it and taught 6 more of their family. So only 8 Orca in the world beach themselves while hunting seals...per the researcher (Roberto Bubas) who studies them stated in the last video I saw.

These are new zeland orcas, they eat only fish -almost exclusively rays and sharks( blue sharks, makos, threshers....)

Looks like their sizing the people up for dinner

It’s amazing how attracted to us they are just as much as we are to them..

Jaws. But with panda markings... my brain...it’s horrifying, it’s beautiful...

Is that you Paul Nnung a nuk???

Don't know why the stingray wasn't as happy as humans.

Great video! But..."south"? This is east.

這同一事件的影片，剛好兩天前有點看到...只是，是從岸上的角度拍的...那隻跳起來的魟魚，逃到很岸邊，停留有一陣... 這影片仔細看，岸邊水中黑影...魟魚逃到那位，黑長髮、戴白帽、穿黑短褲、粉紅色衣的女生腳下，又往左游，有人指著。影片沒了之後，會再往右移停...

Oceans are dying from too many people

Some where I saw the other angle from another youtube ......fly......

They are Orca, they are in the harbour almost every year over the summer period, have seen them on that stretch of coast from my Kayak not too long a go.

Dang they are so close this is why you should trust sea-world cause they do natural behaviors like this and not trust blackfish

They are close because NZ orcas eat almost only stingrays and sharks and stingrays live mostly in shallows
