5Amazing Experience & Great Team
Great trip! We saw many humpbacks and sealions. We went with 2 small kids and it still was very enjoyable. The boats are great and warm (semi covered) and the staff (Sierra,Hana,Liam,Emma) were all knowledgeable, kind and just great! Recommended 👌
5Energetic experience start to finish.
A bit expensive, however I assume running that type of business is not cheap. Sierra, Emma Hana and Liam were all great guides. It was a great time seeing the variety of animals that the Salish sea has to offer and being explained facts about them while witnessing them. Already planning for a round 2 on our next visit to Victoria.
5One of the best Birthdays Ever!!
I have been on several whale watching tours in Victoria and up island. Today was different and perfect- not to mention it was my burthday. I appreciated the convinces of the vessel vs a zodiac: sit inside option, washrooms, coats, hats and mitts available if you needed them. One can move around the outside catwalk of the vessel - so everyone has the chance for a 💯 unobstructed view. Our tour guide was a natural teacher, not just spewing facts but engaging and passionate about the topic. I expect silly appreciated the distinction between what is known and what is speculated about the ocean marine life.
5Best tour ever
We had the most awesome experience as we were surrounded by approximately 50 humpbacks - everywhere you turned you’d see 4 or 5 spouts. The guides were truly amazed at the quantity of whales in the area.
5A magical experience
I've gone on your fabulous tours before. Last night's sunset cruise has to take the cake, the humpbacks were in a feeding frenzy. It was even more amazing/magical than I could have ever imagined! Can't wait to go again 👏🏻
5Out standing experience
Such a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff were so knowledgeable . I was over the moon to see all the sea life (and more ) than I had hoped. I did not expect to have a crew that dedicated to our experience. 😊🙏

About Vancouver Island
Vancouver Island is a long, mountainous island off British Columbia, home to the capital Victoria, temperate rainforest and whale-watching waters.
Vancouver Island runs about 460 kilometres along the Pacific coast of British Columbia, with a spine of mountains, deep inlets and old forest. Victoria, the provincial capital at the southern tip, has the Inner Harbour, the Parliament Buildings and the Royal BC Museum. Nearby, Butchart Gardens fills an old limestone quarry with flower beds, and Craigdarroch Castle, a Victorian mansion, stands on a hill in the city.
