STUNNING San Josef Bay Tour in Cape Scott Provincial Park
CA$425Tour Highlights: Without a doubt, one of the most amazing things to see at San Josef Bay are the sea stacks. The sea stacks at San Josef Bay are some of the only ocean-eroded stacks on Vancouver Island, and are certainly the most extreme. Water surging through the sandy passages at high tide has slowly eroded the softer rock, leaving behind only the harder formations. In some spots, this effect has left behind the sea stacks, a remarkable feature, but one found fairly commonly around the world.

Spring Bears and Whales Tour in Campbell River
CA$476.39This unique Spring Bear and Whale Watching Tour includes lunch and offers something for everyone! Springtime in British Columbia is a time of waking up and preparing for the summer ahead. This holds especially true for Black Bears (mɛxaɬ). After long winter months of hibernating, the black bears must replenish their fat reserves in preparation for breeding. We often find them at the water’s edge foraging on rocky beaches for shellfish and sedge grasses. At the same time, Humpback and Orca Whales are returning to the Salish Sea from more tropical climates, where they migrated last fall to give birth and mate over the winter. The West Coast Bigg’s Killer Whales add to the diverse mix of marine wildlife in their ongoing search for the seals, dolphins and porpoises that make up their diet. A seasoned skipper and experienced naturalist share their knowledge in searching for black bears, whales and all the abundant birds and wildlife surrounding us.
