Cruise through the Gulf Islands of Vancouver in an open-air or semi-enclosed Zodiac as professional naturalists narrate the entire journey. As the boat wends its way through the islands, be on the lookout for orca whales, Dall's porpoises, seals, eagles, and many other marine creatures.
Choose between a thrilling open-air Zodiac and a more sedate, semi-enclosed Zodiac, and then head out into the open waters. The Gulf Islands of Vancouver are home to a diverse wildlife population, including porpoise, seals, eagles, herons, and the majestic orca whale. A professional naturalist will narrate the entire cruise and can answer questions about the fascinating creatures of this region. Onboard hydro-phones–devices that can pick up sounds underwater–give you the opportunity to hear the whales' songs and other underwater noises.
