Watch for Humpback Whales, Orcas (Killer Whales), Gray Whales, and Minke Whales, along with sea lions, seals, porpoises, and a variety of marine birds. You will be outfitted in a Transport Canada-mandated Mustang flotation suit and guided by a certified Skipper who also serves as your onboard naturalist.
