Capture memories to last a lifetime as you explore Victoria’s coastline in search of orcas, humpback whales, minke whales, grey whales, porpoises, harbour seals, and more marine life. A 14-metre ocean cruiser will take you on a safe journey across the waters where you’ll revel in an intimate whale watching experience from the comfort of a covered vessel. Certified marine biologists are onboard to divulge facts about the wildlife and landscapes while answering any of your questions. The route of the voyage varies depending on whale sightings and weather conditions. Typically, you’ll cruise along Victoria’s scenic waterfront to Oak Bay and the Chain Islets. Here you’ll spot harbour seals and seabirds before heading east to San Juan Island, or north along the Saanich Peninsula.
