Traveler reviews
Amazing experience
I had the privilege of joining the half day whale watching excursion today. It was the experience of a lifetime. We saw humpback whales, seals, eagles and ORCAS! First, the boat was spacious and comfortable with lots of room, drinks, and washrooms. However, what really made the experience shine was the crew! They stuck with it until the very end of the journey when we unexpectedly came across a pod of 4 orcas. It was neat seeing the crew get as excited as we did. The authenticity of their care was undeniable and you can tell that they love their jobs. We had a great time, listening to information about the whales and even learning their names! The crew let the adventure go a bit over time so that we could enjoy the time watching the orcas. I was so excited to see the whales that I forgot to get my phone out; luckily the crew was equipped with a photographer who took pictures throughout, and these were sent to us by email very quickly after the tour. It was an incredible experience with a wonderful company. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a whale watching experience!
Great day with a wonderful crew
Went out with the crew on 3 July and the experience was excellent . The crew Wilma, Tobin and Belv provided great insight of the habitat and habits of the whales and Orcas. The team is friendly and accommodating. A Shout out to the new trainee Kiefer who is super friendly and passionate about the trade and he will do well and be a great naturalist. We saw a family of Orcas , seals and Humpback whale - happy day ! Highly recommended !
