Overview

Encounter the marine life of Vancouver Island on a half-day whale watching tour. Unlike many other tours, this one includes beach landings thanks to special watercraft, and two dedicated seats per passenger, so you can choose whether to sit inside a warm cabin or outside in the open air. While helping you spot whales, porpoises, dolphins, and other animals, indigenous guides also share insight into First Nations culture.
  • See dolphins, orca whales, and other marine life in the wild
  • Learn about Vancouver's indigenous history and culture
  • Each guest has a seat inside the cabin and outside on deck
  • Beach landings are possible on the custom-designed boats

    The trip was great
    Tom_D, May 2024
    The crew was good. Safety was on the top of the list. The tour guide was great she was knowledgeable and a pleasant person. She made our fun. We saw three killer whales and learned about tribal culture. Worth the drive from Victoria to take this tour.
    Excellent adventure
