The grey whale that has been visiting the local waters of Vancouver for the last six days decided to make it an even seven.
The whale was seen again in English Bay, just off Kitsilano and the West End’s beaches, throughout Monday. A number of people were seen watching the whale from the seawall while others went into the water on rowboats, kayaks, canoes and even paddle boards.
Avid whale watchers are reminded that a minimum distance of 100 metres should be kept at all times.

I decided to take Cali and Ryle on a walk on the seawall today, we played at David Lam Park and when we finished I decided to keep walking downtown instead of just leaving because it was such a gorgeous day out. On our travels we found two Grey Whales playing not even 100 meters out beside the Inukshuk. It’s days like these that makes you appreciate Vancouver for all its beauty – how could anyone want to leave this place. #beautifulbritishcolumbia #vancouver #greywhales #seawall #yvr #vancity #englishbay @vancitybuzz A video posted by アンドリュー alojado ????
