You cannot hunt killer whales. It is illegal. According to NOAA, all species of Orca are protected by the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act.
Beluga whales are a protected species and are not hunted commercially. Native people in Alaska and Canada are allowed to hunt them, and kill from 1200 to about 1500 each year.
It largely depends on the whale. Toothed whales (such as the Sperm and Killer whales) are usually considered to be apex predators. Due to their size and hunting strategies their only main predator is humans (who are usually disregarded from such systems). Baleen whales (such as the Humpback and Blue whales) cannot be considered such as, though they are often protected by their immense size, their young are regularly hunted by other large predators, especially the toothed whales.
Humpback whales are not normally preyed upon because the female is protected by the male when approached by danger. The Killer whale will sometimes prey upon the Humpback, and will eat one if found dead.
There isn't really a safe place for beluga whales, other then places in like Marine Land, where they have no predators and water pollution.
