Snorkel, Kayak, and Seal Adventure: Vancouver Boat Tour

  • 5 hours (approx.)

  • Mobile ticket

  • Offered in: English

Our Snorkel Adventure is a true West Coast experience just minutes from Vancouver on this exciting 5-hour excursion. Snorkel in the stunning Howe Sound, then head toward the Pam Rocks seal colony for a glance at these gorgeous sea creatures. Slip into a wet suit and strap on some snorkel gear for a dip in the sea. For those who prefer to stay in the boat, there's also a 'sightseeing only' option. All snorkeling equipment, refreshments, and light snacks are included.

What to Expect

Shared tour (max 12)
5 hrs duration

Snorkel while observing Vancouver's resident harbour seals during this 5-hour adventure boat tour! Board our boat from Horseshoe Bay with your adventure guide, where we'll take you by boat on our 40ft customized dive vessel, to the local seal colony. Slip into the provided snorkel gear and wetsuit, then dive in for an up-close experience with seals, following their lead! Snorkel around the bay and the rocks, experiencing the marine environment. We then travel to a second location where you have the option to kayak or snorkel again. A sightseeing-only option is available for those passengers who wish to stay dry on the boat. All snorkeling equipment, refreshments, and light snacks are included.

Please note this tour is created for sightseeing only, we do not encourage interaction with the seals. However, seals all have unique personalities and some may swim right up to you to have a closer look! In these events we encourage all adventurers to simply stay still and let the seal do it's thing. All snorkelers must agree and abide to our marine protection guidelines before entering the water.
