Sunset Whale Watching in Vancouver

This adventure will take you on a 3- to 5-hour, fully-guided whale watching & marine wildlife viewing tour. Before boarding, we ask all guests to check-in at our office. From there we will provide directions for boarding your boat. We are located on Granville Island.

Every tour is different as we explore the Salish Sea in search of orca, humpback whales, porpoises, pinnipeds, seabirds and all other wildlife along the way!

Please ensure you prepare for all types of weather! Depending on the whales whereabouts, tours can cover a large geographic area. The predicted Vancouver forecast is not necessarily what you can expect when you're out on the water and away from the city. Weather conditions can be extremely variable and we strongly suggest you bring layered clothing, as most often it is cooler on the water than you'd expect. Sea conditions are variable, and the ride can be bumpy at times. We therefore suggest you wear comfortable, flat-soled shoes. Guests on our open air vessels (or the outdoor seats on the semi-covered vessel), may experience sea spray depending on the wind conditions on the day of your tour. Please prepare for the possibility of getting splashed!
