About Us

We are the largest whale watching company in the Vancouver area, and the only one which has a well established reputation for excellence. Only 40 minutes from downtown Vancouver, we offer a terrific suite of tours as well as substantial savings in both time and money when compared to travel to Victoria.

Our two custom-built, 45-passenger “Explorathor vessels” and our two 12-passenger zodiacs give us a whale watching capacity of 114 people per departure. If your group size is larger we will work with one of our partners on your behalf to ensure we can accommodate a group of any size.

Passengers will experience the thrill of an open zodiac ride in our summer months or travel in style and comfort in our semi covered zodiac-style vessels in the spring and fall months.  All of our boats are equipped with washrooms and Coast Guard Standard safety equipment. They are stable and comfortable enough for people of every age, and are ideal for tour groups.

Our 3 to 5 hour whale watching tour focuses on Southern Resident Killer whales, transient killer whales, majestic humpback whales and other marine wildlife such as porpoises, sea lions, seals and bald eagles. Professional Wildlife Guides offer expert commentary as you travel through the Strait of Georgia and the spectacular scenery of the Gulf Islands. We have a sighting success rate of 90% and offer one of the best sight unseen guarantee.

We are able to provide shuttle transportation with several different pickup points in the Vancouver and Richmond areas for passengers without private transportation. We also have free all-day parking available and can fit any size RV.

Boxed lunches are also available upon request.

I would like to invite you to look at our website where you can view wonderful images. As well, you may download a copy of our brochure.

We look forward to having you aboard!
