An expert guide will make sure you enjoy a safe, fun and informative experience.Your tour starts at the Victoria wharf, where you’ll check in and hop aboard your Zodiac for your whale-watching adventure. In contrast to the smoother ride of a large motor yacht, a Zodiac raft travels fast and puts you nearer to the water, providing you with closer views of whales and other wildlife (and getting you a bit wet, but that’s all part of the fun).
Sit back and hold on tight as your skipper zooms across the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the body of water that separates Vancouver Island from the United States. Watch for whales like humpbacks, orcas, minke whales and gray whales, as well as other marine mammals like sea lions, elephant seals and harbor seals. And look up once in a while to spot bald eagles soaring through the sky and sea birds scanning the water to find food.
During the ride, your naturalist guide provides expert commentary about the ecosystem of the Pacific while you learn about the behavior and biology of the whales and other sea life. Your tour ends with a return to the wharf.
