Our most crazy animal encounter ever takes place in this episode but first, we find some offgrid camps along the South West Coast, starting at Starvation Bay. After a few days spent enjoying the calm turquoise bay in front of camp, an epic sunset spot and even a trip to the rabbit proof fence, we moved along to our next camp: Four Mile Beach in the Fitzgerald River National Park.
This camp was beautiful but unfortunately the weather didn’t play ball. Lucky we had just enough sun to squeeze in a dive and a hike to the top of East Mount Barren.
Then we finally hit Bremer Bay and while there were many beautiful beaches around the area, our main reason for visiting was to go on the killer whale tour with Whale Watch Western Australia. Not only did we see multiple family pods (around 70 killer whales) up close in their natural habitat, we also witnessed them hunt and kill a strap-toothed beaked whale. What made the hunt extra rare was the interference of over 100 pilot whales who charged in attempting to stop the orca and save the beaked whale. Watching this all unfold was truly one of the most unbelievable moments we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Wow guys what an incredible episode. I felt so emotional watching those whales do their “whale” things. Mother nature is truly remarkable. You must have felt so small alongside those big creatures 😅

Wonderful views of the south west, and amazing but sombre experience with the orca hunt. Your narration of it was very good.

Just discovered your channel guys and loved this video. Bremer Bay holds beautiful memories in my heart. The beaches are stunning especially in the NP where there are some amazing beaches and bays.

I’m watching this from Bremer Bay, we own a semi permanent on-site caravan here (which I saw in your episode). It’s an incredible place! Funnily enough we live close to Starvation Bay (30 minutes) so I got all the feels watching this episode 😂 Have never done an Orca tour sadly as I suffer sea sickness and I’m just not game to risk it but loved your vision of it as sad as it was 😢

What an awesome experience out to the Bremer Canyon regardless of the gruesome sight but many friends have had their trip cancelled due to bad weather especially strong winds so lucky to have a sunny day . But Im sure you enjoyed Blossoms Beach and the many other beaches around Bremer as well as the Canyon .

Thanks for tuning in mate. We were incredibly fortunate to witness this! We didn’t unfortunately, will pop it on the list for next time. I did have a look at it on the map but we would’ve been copping it from the prevailing winds. Next time 🤠

We have spent a lot of time around Whales here on the NSW/VIC Far South Coast and in New Zealand and have seen, heard and felt a lot of 'Whale experiences' but this hunt and 3 whale type experience must have been amazing and sad at the same time. Bremer Bay Orca trip is certainly on the must do list. Also in this video whilst you were filling at water tanks and fishing noticed your water hose and filter, what type of hose and filter is it ?

@ryanturner9457 4 ай бұрын

Maybe an opportunity for a video showing some of the different bits of equipment/additions you use...your anchor tracks on the BBQ slide is a great example

@our.australia.trip. 4 ай бұрын

Yes us too, this one was next level. The experience and knowledge of the crew on board elevated this, to see such a rare hunt and have full commentary from the team on board. Just amazing. I use a best water pre filter and a homemade manifold with my coil hose to fill the van 😀 anchor channel is from BCF 👍🏼

Hi Brad and Hayley. Love your videos. I am about to put a deposit on the Zone Peregrin and I was wondering if you can give me an idea of what your loaded ball weight is typically? It would help me a lot in working out if my Land Rover can handle the weight. Many thanks.
