Breathtaking experience

Published on Oct, 2024

My daughter, who lives in Vancouver, booked us onto the Whale Watching tour, which turned out to be the highlight of my visit from the UK. We were on the very last tour of the season, and were lucky enough to see numerous humpbacks, orcas, sealions, seals and eagles during our time on the Zodiac. James and Harley were very knowledgeable, and respectful of the animals' space and their environment. They were personable and fun throughout, making it an all-round fabulous experience!

Stunning whale watching tour with James! 100% recommended & all worth the long drive up the island!

We had a stunning whale watching tour with James! 100% recommended & all worth the long drive up the island! I've had 2 other whale watching tours before on Vancouver Island, but this one was for sure the best! James was friendly, helpful, informative and funny - we couldn't have asked for a better guide - and we saw so many animals, especially humpbacks, right in front of a beautiful rainbow (sounds too good to be true I know). It's the perfect spot for whale watching on Vancouver Island, if you want to be in wild nature and great company! Make sure to wear quite a few layers, if you plan on coming in late September since it can get very cold on the water. Still a great time for whale watching since you might see so many humpback whales feeding before they migrate to warmer waters. We loved it!

Can be a mind blowing experience.

This experienced will be remembered for the rest of my life. 15 minutes out of the cove we were surrounded by Humpback whales, lunging for food constantly throughout the 3 hours, Orcas playing with dolphins, slapping their tails and the display / sounds of the sealions. A must see. Our captain James provided fantastic background on the villages, sea life and interesting factoids. Not many photos as I resorted to video as the whales are fast. Haven't isolated the frames yet. Thank you again James

Great day on the water

Published on Sep, 2024

We had an incredible day on the water. We have seen a lot of humpback whales and a group of transient orca and other wildlife. The orcas went on hunt for a dall`s porpoise which was interesting to watch. James did a superb job showing us things and provided an interesting commentary

Orca magic

Published on Sep, 2024

Awesome trip. A full boat of different nationalities was kept safe/entertained and informed superbly by James. We saw Humpbacks, Dalls Porpoise, the ‘T23’ Bigg’s Orca group, Sea lions, eagles. A hunt and capture between the Orca group and an unlucky Porpoise - all with informative and good humoured descriptions from James. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime
