Spectacular scenery with wildlife viewing possibilities that may include:

See why Campbell River is quickly becoming known as a whale watching hotspot on Vancouver Island. This is our most popular family-friendly tour, and takes place on our fun and stable zodiac vessels. We cruise throughout the Salish Sea and Desolation sound in search of the biggest and most exciting marine mammals that call this region home. During our four-hour tours we provide light snacks and refreshments. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to stop for breaks at interesting and historical sites in this beautiful area. 

Tour departs from our Campbell River Marine Adventure Centre and our Painters Lodge location.
