We call that area to the west of Stuart and San Juan "Orca Alley."

Thanks for the video.

Nothing ruins a magnificent scene quite like a container ship.

Just think--those orcas are likely headed out to hunt down a female Gray Whale and kill her baby. Then they work as a team to dismember it... But of course humans do the same.
