Well, at last, we are back! We cannot express how much we missed seeing you all and how good it feels to have our doors (partially) open again! So now that summer is fast approaching and restrictions are easing, British Columbians are looking to support their local businesses and plan their staycations for the summer. Lucky for us, we live in the most beautiful area in the world, so this is a great opportunity for us to look to our own backyard when planning our summer activities, like whale watching.

Did you know that BC has some of the best whale watching in the world – every year tourists flock to our shores to see killer whales, humpback whales, grey whales, sea lions, harbor porpoises, and other marine mammals all in their natural habitat? With residents looking to stay local and support BC tourism this summer, this is a great opportunity for us to take in a whale watching tour.

Since reopening, we’ve noticed an increase in inquiries from first-time whale watchers, as well as seasoned whale watchers planning their first post-lockdown trip. So, we’ve compiled a list of five things that you can expect from your first – or first post-lockdown Vancouver whale watching tour of the season, as well as some tips for making your first trip an amazing experience!
