Dolphins Food
Dolphins are predators. They eat a variety of fish.
- Dolphin calves stop drinking their mother’s milk at 6 months of age
- The fish that they eat include squids and crustaceans, such as shrimp.
- Adult dolphins eat up to 4% to 5% of their body weight per day, but a
nursing mother may eat up to 8% per day.
- Dolphins’ teeth are usually made for grasping not chewing. If a dolphin
needs to break its food into smaller pieces, it will grasp its food and throw
it against the water. This makes it easier to eat the food.
- Dolphins do not chew their food. They swallow it whole.
- They swallow fish head first so that the spines of the fish won't catch in
their throats.

The Skipper's Corner
"The Legendary Captain" Ron King, Owner Operator of Sea
King Adventures, has over 35 years of experience in the beautiful waters
around Victoria and Vancouver Island. He is a certified Master Skipper
with The distinction of being Victoria's most knowledgeable marine naturalist
and conservationist .
Since starting SeaKing Adventures in 1995 Ron boasts a
perfect safety record.
Born and raised in Victoria, Captain Ron has over 30 years
of professional marine experience - including 25 years of commercial fishing and
11 years whale watching.
Like his father before him, going to sea is the only life he’s known. He began
his career as a deckhand on board his father’s fishing boat "Five Kings II" at
the tender age of 11. By the time he was 20, he owned and operated his first
fishing vessel, "Aquarius".
In 1995, with the commercial fishery in decline, he
discovered his passion and purpose in whale watching and founded SeaKing
Adventures Inc.
Because SeaKing Adventures is Victoria’s only 100% family owned and
operated marine tour company, Ron’s commitment to quality, safety and
satisfaction is guaranteed! His central location on board the vessel allows him
to provide Victoria’s most comprehensive fully narrated, totally interactive and
personalized tours. Boasting a spotless safety record and sightings guarantee,
Ron’s qualifications and experience combine to make him the city’s premier
guide.
Our vessel can accommodate groups of 12 comfortably and is
Canadian Coast Guard inspected annually. The soft riding boat has comfy leather
seats, an onboard toilet and is equipped with all the latest in GPS, radar and
communications apparatus. Safety survival suits are supplied for each
passenger.
Passengers can all expect a exciting, educational, safe and
comfortable tour of the area whales and wildlife.
