Rare sight: Orcas spotted in Victoria’s Inner Harbour (PHOTOS)

A pod of orcas arrived in Victoria’s Inner Harbour on Thursday, a rare sight for residents, tourists and whale-watchers.

At least four orcas were seen swimming around the harbour, making their way under the Johnson Street Bridge during their hour-long visit before heading back out to sea.
