REVIEWS OF West Coast Aquatic Safaris IN British Columbia

Parth Darji

Keith at the office is a really nice person. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The Captain and the guy alongside him did a great job during our ride. Keep it up

Baxter Bolton

We had a great trip with Keith, the owner of West Coast Aquatic Safaris. A very knowledgeable fellow that also kept us safe driving around BC's wildlife. I would definitely go again!

Helene Childs

Keith is the most amazing guide!! Knows so much about the area!! Can't wait to go back!

Andrew Spitzer

After a lot of research we selected West Coast Aquatic Safaris for our Tofino whale watching tour. It did not disappoint. Captain Jackie made sure we not only saw a few whales, but she positioned the boat so we could all get some great photos. The deck hand Adam was energetic, friendly and very knowledgeable about the whales and the environment. They have various boats and we selected the one with the most cover and good thing we did as it was a rainy day. The weather did not stop us from having an amazing experience. I would recommend West Coast Aquatic Safaris and would book with them again.

Marc Verstappen

Nice staff and the boat was supreme to others out there. So why only three stars you might ask? We saw grey whales and humpback whales, which was great. But unless you have the eyes of an eagle we couldn't see much execpt for tales far far away. Because of rules and regulations they cannot approach closer, but it is still a bit dissapointing. So bring really good equipment if you want to make photo's. I could post mine, but you'd only see a pixel of a whale tail. Time on the water was nice.

Linda Sun

We called them last minute for a whale tour in the morning. We saw humpback, grey whale and so many sea otters. When we got to the whale part of the water, the water was very chopping and our captain checked up on us to make sure we weren't too sea sick. Also, their jackets kept us warm. The whale tour was so amazing, so we decided to book for a bear tour the next day. This was one of the highlights of our trip. We saw a mama bear and 2 cubs trying to find food. On our way back, our captain Keith, threw in a surprise for us and we saw some orcas in the bay. Thank you for an amazing adventure. I highly recommend these 2 tours to anyone who wants to get close to nature at its purest form.

Jan-Olaf Bakker

Staff and crew were friendly and knowledge. The boats are sheltered and good for young kids

I've been to the Hot Spring Cove 3X now so my son and I booked our next trip (2nd for him) with Jamie's Whaling Station yesterday but the 8AM trip was canceled. We always book our trip with them. So we tried West Coast Aquatic Safaris and no regrets whatsoever....friendly staff, knowledgeable boat captain (Aaron if I'm not mistaken). Saw a mama grey whale and her baby , and a couple of humpback whales on our way to the cove. Aaron is an awesome captain and a guide. Going to the cove is a bit pricey but if you can avail of a discount from them, don't even think about it...just book your trip with them! Now the one thing I hate is the parking, they don't have their own, so you either pay $5 to park all day or park somewhere else where it says 4 hours (enforce starting at 10AM) and hope your trip went smoothly as planned or risk getting a ticket when you get back. That is the only reason why they only got 4 STARS rating from me.

Fabien Obadia

Great bears and nice people from WCA

Ken Maclean

Went on the afternoon whale tour and was really disappointed. For $475 for a three hour tour for two adults and two teens you might expect to see more than a few whales that were at least 1000 yards away. Frankly it could have been the Loch Ness Monster for all anyone on the boat could tell. Saw a few sea lions and otters (from a fair distance) but no orcas. Staff were very pleasant and clearly concerned that tourists were underwhelmed by the experience. Perhaps just an unlucky day but for that kind of money you would expect an unforgettable experience. If there's a next time we will take in the beautiful scenery on a free hike, send my wife to the spa at the Wickannish and then have a nice dinner out at one of the many nice restaurants in Tofino.

Ulanda McDonald

Most do when on Victoria Island. Wonderful, breathtaking excursion to see the whales.

Bruce Nollert

Big thanks to the team at west coast aquatic safaris for a magical morning on the ocean! We were first introduced to joe on the shop who helped us get set up and ready along with some great conversation. Once we got on the boat skipper Jacks was amazing! She was super knowledgeable about the whole experience and the connection of all the natural elements and how they play roles in the environment! She was able to navigate us to amazing and magical spots and we saw grey whales, humpback, otters, and seals. Highly highly recommend! If you don’t visit these guys you are most definitely missing out!

Justin H

No complaints, great whale watching tour. We saw 5 grey whales, several sea otters, and 2 bald eagles. None of us had been on a tour like this before and were thrilled. The staff was great, the boat was good, the ride was a bit choppy but made the ride fun. The scenery was great and the rain held off through our trip.

Leon Hwa

Last week I was traveling on Vancouver Island and Tofino is my last stop. Made a last decision and booked it through their website the same day morning on 9/24, and I'm glad I did it! The weather was good and the boat is comfy for sitting inside while moving and able to stand outside to observe and take photos. Aaron is very professional & knowledgeable and also willing to share good spots for foods. I would recommend West Coast Aquatic Safaris to anyone who is looking for whale watching tour!

Philipp

We had s pretty nice whale watching tour. Saw a couple of whales out there and sea lions. It was also quite good with our 1 year old son as the boat hat indoor & outdoor space. Going out of the harbour in tofino is just so amazing.

TU MAG

Very Nice people with good knowledge and a lot of Fun to go out! Thanks for great bear sightings!

Caterina Lee

My husband and I had an awesome time on the whale watching tour! We felt very safe on the vessels and the staff and crew were very knowledgeable and keen to answer our questions. We'll be going back for a hot springs tour for sure. Thanks for the amazing experience, West Coast Aquatic Safaris!

Andres Salazar

Amazing experience with knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Ranbir Nijjer

Keith was awesome and very informative!

Taylor Attrill

Our skipper was INCREDIBLE! Jax was super friendly, personable, funny, kind, informative; just all around amazing. We only saw one whale and see only got to see it blow water a couple times from below the surface (it never came up out of the water), other than that we saw a bear, some sea lions, sea otters. Overall was a good experience! Just wish more whales were present.

Assaf Goldberg

Fantastic experience. Our guide was just great, he had lots of information and new exactly where to go to see all the wildlife. You can tell he loves what he does. Highly recommend!

Franz Weinland

Great tour company! Very knowledgable and friendly staff, patient and kind with kids. Learnt a lot that day last summer. I was impressed by the big boat they have. wheelchair ramp and everything! Will always recommend west coast aquatic safaris.

Vineet Singh

We couldn't see any whales. I would say not worth spending if you are not an avid animal watcher. The ride however is enjoyable.

Carlee Wilson

We went on a Whale watching tour last week and it was great! The boat was a perfect size (not so small you were worried about waves) and the seats were comfy if you wanted to sit. The 2 people running the tour were knowledgable about the wildlife they showed us and had lots of information to share. We saw some grey whales, sea lions, a bald eagle, otters, and more! It was a fun trip and I would recommend this group to anyone looking for a whale watching tour.

Steve Jourdain

We had a great day with Aaron our skipper for the day. He has an impressive bagage of knowledge about quite anything and it was a pleasure to discuss with him. Plus gave us great travel tips for our trip. Overall, we saw 2 Grey whales, 1 porpoise,seals, and some sea otters

Colleen Lowery

AMAZING!! We got to see SO many Grey Whales super close to the boat, stellar sea lions, sea otters, and marine birds (sea chickens ????) Thank you to our captain Aaron for all the super cool facts about the local environment and marine life!

Alex Wilson

Great experience! The guide was really friendly and knowledgeable. He found us some grey whales to gawk at, and a bear. The hot spring was also amazing with a beautiful walk through the rainforest to get to it. Would definitely recommend this company!

Reumah Parmanand

Great experience with very knowledgeable tour guides! Worth every penny! Get to see more than whales!

Krista Boese

Very awesome whale tour. The guides obviously love their job and wildlife. Definitely Recommend!!

Denys Shupta

Good customer service. Thanks )))

Annija Matisone

Great experience! Comfortable, fun and enjoyable!

Jon Swain

Captain Jax was amazing! She helped us out by wheelchair access on her boat. Saw lots of wild animals. She even called another company for us to try and see grizzly bears. Perfect trip.

akhil prabhu

These guys are worth every penny!!!! Shoutout to our Captain Jax, shared some amazing stories while on our bear watching tour with westcoast safari. You can expect quite a diverse crowd and fun people on such adventure tours!!!

Jodi Logan

Awesome got to see grey whales up close great guides overall super happy!

Mya N

This is the tour company you want! 10 of us girls went with Aquatic Safaris to the hot springs and it was awesome. From the booking, to the boat ride, to the return trip, everything was great. Customer service was on point. Captain Aaron was very professional and fun at the same time. A few of us girls got a bit seasick en route and he proceeded to serenade us as a distraction. So sweet. We also got to see orcas and grey whales as well! Aaron was on time to pick us up and made sure we were most comfortable for the whole ride. The boat was very well equipped with a clean toilet and good heating. Very happy with our choice.

Alex Gercar

It was such a beautiful day,Eric was wonderful captain Thanks a lot Guys

GEREMY Mackay

K so this was my best group experience to date the driver of the boat was super knowledgeable all the staff were super friendly 10/10 over all A+

Tim van Dam

We had a nice day trip, but the hot springs we were visiting were a bit disappointing. We were expecting more room to sit in the spring itself and the accessibility of the springs were bad. My father had a hard time walking the boardwalk (this was totally worth it for the walk alone) but the springs were not in reach for him because of the rocks and slippery path.

Charley McIntyre

Great tour with my family, we managed to see Orcas, sea lions and otters. Tour guides were knowledgable and super friendly!

Merissa

Wonderful experience! Boat was very comfortable, staff knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Moritz H.

Wonderful experience - highly recommend WC Aquatic Safaris. The staff was super passionate and knowledgeable and we will never forget the trip (Bear Watching Tour). Look no further - Keith and his team are the best.

Harry Ardley

Our trip to the hot springs was incredible. Our captain was excellent and very accommodating to all of our requests.

Kathryn Thirlwell

My husband and I had a great time with WCAS. Went out bear and whale watching over the past two days, the guys were all very friendly and knowledgeable (Adam and Keith thank you) and we were lucky enough to see three bears, a grey whale, sea otters, eagles, sea lions..Fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Matt Goulden

Awesome tour, saw otters, sea lions and grey whales. Keith was fantastic and very knowledgeable

Martin Wilkinson

Our last ride was amazing! Great scenery and knowledgeable staff. The day was a 10 out of 10!

rajan mahtani

We booked the 3pm Bear watch excursion. They were very thorough with the Covid measures and safety instructions. We boarded the Nanuq with captain Jacky and Joyce. They made sure we were informed and entertained at all times. We managed to see some bear action thanks to their efforts to search for the best spots. Be aware that at this time of the year (end of Oct) the weather can get very cold so come well prepared.

Megan Kent

Fantastic experience! Staff is exceptionally friendly and chatty. Felt super safe the entire time and saw lots of wild life! Definitely recommend going with this company!

Janice Pirie

We went on a tour to the Hot Springs on September 12th with Shane. We saw so many animals along the way it was incredible! Two bear, two grey whales, numerous porpoises, three eagles and lots of seals and sea otters! What a day. Shane went above and beyond on the tour, trying to find animals for us and was very informative using his knowledge of the area, the wildlife, and the history of the hot springs to guide the tour. Super friendly guy! We would recommend this tour to anyone! We took the early boat to try to beat the hot springs crowds. I read reviews that it was super busy; yes I guess the springs are pretty small but we managed to find space. Thanks for a great tour!

Jonathan McArthur

Went with this outfit honestly because of the types of boats they have. Nice cruisers with an upper deck which is handy to have. The upper deck is easier to see the whales when there are waves. The lower deck is great to chill for a bit if you need a break from the bumps and waves. Jackie was our guide and she was super kind cheerful and respectful of the land and sea and honestly gave more space than other operators did all the while never compromising on the experience. I know I paid a little more than others but between the staff both on the boat and in the storefront to the boats and experience I and my family are more than ok with that as they are worth the buck and would readily recommend West Coast Aquatic Safaris.

Rishi Bhabutta

We went on the hot springs cove tour, the weather on the day is very likely to make or break the experience. It was incredibly rainy the entire time for us which probably ruined it slightly (of course this is no fault of the company). However, I would say the boat is pretty tight and not all that comfortable, especially when you return with 15 wet people. Additionally, our guide was about 20 minutes late picking us up, leaving us all waiting around in horrendous weather conditions. This was pretty frustrating given she had been very clear about the time we were to make sure to be back at the pier for and we had rushed to be on time. The boat journey is 90 minutes each way and a 30 minute walk to the cove each way. The changing facilities are good but the springs will likely be packed with people from other tours too. We did have about an hour, maybe slightly more, to enjoy the hot waters. The further down you go, the closer to the actual cool seawater you get, which can make for a great contrast. The water is amazing to go in while it's cold and rainy outside - I imagine on a hot day, it's not as fun to dip yourself into even hotter water. It's pretty expensive for quite an average experience, I'd suggest if you've done this sort of hot springs somewhere else, don't bother here.

Jillian Morris

Was definitely the highlight of our trip! We will definitely be booking this again next time we are in Tofino! 10/10 would recommend booking your whale/bear watching tours with them!!

Liam Moss

Check in was friendly and very well managed and the sanitization procedures were organized very well ensuring the staff are kept safe as well as the customers. The vessel was clean and lots of room for everyone outside and inside. Solid covid procedures. The views were spectacular and we saw three bears as well as seals, salmon jumping, and lots of interesting bird life. The staff on board were enthusiastic, engaging and were very informative and were happy to share their knowledge! Would definitely repeat for the whale tour next time.

David Lewis

Went whale watching. Saw grey whales. And sea lions. And seals. And otters. Great stable boat, friendly crew. Well worth it.

Mike Spaull

relaxing time at the hot springs, The perfect addition to a couple's getaway. Friendly, knowledgable crew, and superior boats that allow you the best viewing experience. Hot springs tour is highly recommended.

Kyle Lorondeau

The employees are really friendly and knowledgeable of the area. The prices are heavy, but the experience of the hot springs is deffinitly worth the trip at least once in your life. Don't expect a full spa when you get there. It is a bit of a hike, and the pools can sometimes be crowded in the summer. I suggest going durring the rainy season, as the pools can be very hot, and the rain/cool air will keep you from overheating. The boats used by this company are large and covered, so if the rain or rough waters are a concern, be at ease.

M F

Friendly staff on the boat. They told us a lot of interesting things about whales & Tofino. We saw some greywhales, a buckle whale, seals and an otter. Unfortunately the wales were only visible for a very short time and we just saw their back. But it was an interesting trip.

Amanda D

Being out in the water was so beautiful. Staff was friendly and the boat was spacious and comfy as well. Our captain i believe her name was Jax took us out on a great ride. She was awesome even kept us out a little longer

Mino Huang

Amazing hot spring trip with Captain Christy (I’m sorry if I make wrong spelling) yesterday. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and her boat driving skill was so good. Staffs in the office were also friendly and explained every details for the trip. Highly recommend!

Shelly Dinger

Amazing experience! We went out with Jackie and Julia on the bear tour. They were incredibly friendly and knowledgable guides. We saw 4 bears, including a playful cub, along with other wildlife. The scenery was breathtaking, and the ride was easy and smooth. The boats were very comfortable, and the company provided jackets as well.

Netter J

Absolutely fantastic - great and knowledgeable crew! Saw lots of wild life including a very friendly whale!! Boat was very comfortable with indoor and outdoor cushioned seating. Had a loo too. Great visibility from all decks.

Kaitlin Troy

Last minute called and got on a whale sightseeing tour. The guide was amazing and super knowledgeable. Saw sea lions, otters, eagles and a whale blowing. West coast aquatic also was able to provide a rain jacket to keep the water off you. The boat does have to keep 100 meters at the minimum away from the whales so you may not get a good glimpse.

Jonathan

Amazing experience very highly recommend there whale watching tour. Cpt Jax was an excellent guide.

Cathy Richards

Excellent tour with helpful staff in shop and on board. Saw two pods of orcas but sadly no humpbacks or greys.

Mohamed Shihab

Wonderful experience and truly helpful people. They waited for us to catch up while we were stuck in road construction. The captain of the ship was a gem of a guide.

Alicia Renyard

Great tour, saw a ton of grey whales and sea lions. Jackie and Keith were great tour guides!

Vicky Wignall

We did an early morning bear tour with these guys and had a great time, I think some people would be a bit disappointed as we only saw one bear (well my husband saw two, I was looking out the other side of the boat!) bbut we were thrilled as we were hoping to see other wildlife too; Seals, Harbour porpoise, Herons, Bald Eagle and two Wolves! It seems having wolves in the area often means you see fewer bears but from my point of view seing both wolves and bears in the same trip was just amazing! The boat was comfortable, had ample viewing areas and our guide was great. Thoroughly enjoyed our trip!

Francisca Soto

I took the Whales and Bear Watching tours in August 23rd were very nice. We saw a couple whales (just the back, maybe they was shy????). About the bears we saw like 5, was great. The landscapes were amazing. The captain of the boat was very friendly, funny, he took care of us all the time and keep the safety measures of Covid-19. I felt very safe. Thank you so much for everything Captain! (Sorry I don't remember his name????) Nice to meet you! Very good talk???? Have good luck! Keep going!

Susan G

Over the top. Amazing employees. Went above and beyond to accommodate us. Captain Aaron just as spectacular, on our sea adventure to the hot springs, he stopped so we could see the Orcas and Gray Whales. Much to our surprise we got to see the Orcas again on our trip from the hot springs. The day was just amazing. I highly recommend West Coast Aquatic Safaris for your sea adventure tours especially Captain Aaron at the helm.

Tracy Woronecki

All staff were great. Cold and rainy day when we went but it was still a good time. Glad we went

Caitlin Fraser

Great tour! Keith & Joe we’re super informative and we were lucky enough to see orcas, grey whales and a couple sea lions!

Karen Hanushchak-Williamson

We had fantastic grey whale & sea lion viewings. Captain Christie was wonderful! Extremely knowledgable & a very skilled captain. Megan & Joe were professional, very educated, & welcoming. A fabulous time! Thank you so much!

Stacy Shlanger

An amazing experience. All the reviews I read were so positive so I knew it would be good but it was even better than I expected. Captain Jacks and Adam were great and added to the experience. It was grey and raining so I'm happy we booked a boat where there were indoor and outdoor options. We saw a few whales one even coming close to our boat which was amazing. There were couples and families on board and it was perfect for everyone. I highly recommend West Coast Aquatic Safaris. They are professional and we felt very safe as well as the price was very competitive. Thanks for a great day.

Yasmin Diaz

We did see grey whales and seal but we went out on open water and at high speed, several of us became super sick. The deck hand was very kind and helpful to those of us suffering but we could not enjoy the whales as were too sick even before we got to the whale area. The captain took us on the inside passage home which was much calmer - wish he had done the same going out. Would not ever do this again.

Hugh Tucker

Had a great day Bear watching with Keith and Adam in their impressive ship (very comfortable) - saw lots of bears - even cubs and much more wildlife: bald headed eagles, dolphins, seals, otters, and so on. Great day -thanks Guys.

Robert Barcelon

What.A.Magical experience! A beautiful day on the water guided by one of loveliest humans ever. Thank you so much Captain Jax! Super stoked we, ”Risked it, for the biscuit!” Thanks to Joe for the warm welcome and hospitality prior to the trip! Highly recommend these folks while here in Tofino!!

Allison Waskul

Incredible experience and great staff. We saw a number of whales on our trip, worth the money.

Eric Turgeon

Pax was amazing! We had a great time and got to see some amazing views due ! (Whale and bear included) Thanks!

Terry Timoruski

While in Tofino this week, my wife and I went on the whale watching tour. While we did see one grey whale at a distance towards the beginning of the trip, it seemed that after that, there was no effort to find other whales. The captain just drove around around, saw a few seals and the shore area to pass time and arrived back at the specified time. We understand that this is nature and unpredictable and there is risk of not seeing a whale. But it did seem that we were taken on an expensive boat tour with little effort to spot more whales. Expensive and disappointing for both of us given the advertising.

Trevor Thrupp

Well hosted trip into the calm waters east of Tofino to see black bears in their habitat. Good sized boat that allows complete freedom of movement throughout entire trip.

Steve Denroche

Keith was our captain and guide for both the whale watching and bear watching tours. We really appreciated being in a boat with a covered area so we could have an occasional respite from the sun. Couldn't have imagined two hours in a Zodiac... And the catamaran was super stable and we felt completely safe at all times. Both he and Joe were affable, informative, and really good at what they do! I can't imagine a better company with which to experience life on the water. If we make our way back to Tofino, we will book another trip with them! Highly recommended.

Andrew Currah

West Coast's Nanuq double deck boat is one of the best around for whale watching in Tofino. 360 degree viewing, a heated cabin and a restroom aboard. We saw seals, otters and a couple of gray whales on a cold, windy late September day. Thanks so much for the tour!

Léa Baron

Amazing experience! Jackie was incredible, all the staff is friendly, thanks for this experience :)

Shandel Hill

Best time ever. The captain was great and so was the deck hand. Everyone is so friendly. We got to see the whales and sea lions. Weather was great but the swells were huge for my liking. Still a blast though and felt super safe. Recommend this company.

Mitch MD

I went on a hot springs trip and had a great time. Our captain was super knowledgeable and knew where to find orcas and other whales on the way to the springs. The boat was really comfortable and safe. Much better than zodiacs that other companies use. We were warm and comfortable the whole time but also had the option of sitting on the upper level which gave a great perspective. Thanks for an unforgettable day!

julie Beatty

Even with the weather not cooperating we had an amazing day. Aaron was great. Made sure we all saw the wild life and told us about the area. Very knowledgeable! Also the office staff was very welcoming and informative. I can't wait to try the other tours, probably this one again too.

Kris Kretz

Captain Jack was awesome. My younger son and I went to Hotsprings Cove. It was a great day lots of whales, sea lions and sea otters and the Hotsprings were very nice.

Brad McMullen

Great tours and great staff! Did both the ears and the whales.

T P

Had an issue with our booking and at first, did not have a great experience. However, dealing more with the company we received much better response. I can't rate the trip because I was to ill to go.

George Trum

My family of five and I booked this, not really knowing what to expect. Captain Keith and First Mate Joe were awesome—very friendly, personable, and knowledgeable of the area. On our tour, we saw sea lions, otters, grey whales, an orca, and a flock of puffins! Unfortunately, almost all in my family got quite seasick, even with Gravol (but Keith and Joe were very attentive and did their best to help). If you don’t get seasick, you can’t miss this!

Mark Planz

Went on the whale watching tour. The captain and crew were great and they found us some whales. The boat was a nice large catamaran, so it was stable and spacious, with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Would recommend this tour!

Calum Matthews

Had a trip of a life time to the hot springs with West Coast Aquatic Safaris. Our skipper Aaron was really knowledgeable, funny and an excellent boat operator. We saw orcas, a grey whale, a bear and a sea lion. I’ll definitely be back!

Carl S

We had a great time at West Coast Aquatic Safaris. We went on both the whale and bear watching tours on consecutive days. The staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgable (Aaron, Keith and James were especially great). We saw grey whales, sea otters, eagles, sea lions, seals, porpoises, otters and the best of all - black bears. Would highly recommend both trips to anyone visiting Tofino with WCAS. Two very different trips, but if I had to choose between them - I would probably just edge the bear watching.

Michael Klöpper

The bear tour was rather expensive, there were only few explanations, the boat was very loud and stinky and the toilet was broken. No drinks or anything was offered. I have seen and been on much better tours.

Darrell Broad

Took the family out for a whale watch with this guiding company. The guides were very knowledgeable about the local history. We were able to find sea lions, seals, and the grand finally was an awesome show from some transient killer whales. This was our second trip with this company and have yet to be disappointed.

Noel McAuley

West Coast Aquatic Safaris runs a first class operation. This is conveyed through their friendly and knowledgeable staff as well as in their choice of vessels they run. They are family oriented and for our family of six, with four kids ranging from 2 through 9 years of age, we all felt extremely safe on their 1,000 hp twin haul vessel. It was an awesome experience. A special thank you to Diandra, Cap't Dylan and his first mate Harlow, you guys were awesome. A 10 out 10 for or family, and we are already planning our next tour with West Coast Aquatic Safaris. Cheers

Bronwen Warburton

We had a great time!! Saw lots of wildlife even though the Puffins were not around and the hot spring is really cool because its actually natural but the area is a bit of a hazard with sharp rocks and algae which might make it difficult for some people. Also the pools are small so I'm really glad that we went in the shoulder season because it was pretty busy already but still enjoyed it!! Thanks for the fun trip and totally worth the money!

Annette Foster

Really enjoyed going out today. Able to see sea lions and otters , 4-5 grey whales. Great hosts-friendly,sharing info and really showed that they enjoy what they do ! Recommend this company for Whale watching tours

Amanda Di Sarra

We were running late due to highway closure to Tofino and they were very accommodating

Tim Platt

Great trip. Wild wild place. It was kind of scary at times, but the crew were brilliant. Take ginger candy with you if you get seasick.

Marilyn Hobbs

Had an amazing whale watch with Aaron Turner. Saw orcas grey whales puffins and sea lions. Very knowledgeable driver and guide.
