A Cruise of a Different Nature

Our Boat Tours

Our Boat Tours

Award winning Vancouver Island boat tours that are unique and personal:

Our boat is luxurious, comfortable, and we’ll look for whales, bears, sea otters, sea lions, seals, eagles and other wildlife. We’ll cruise the narrow channels of the Broken Group Islands and serve you a gourmet lunch while at anchor. However it is more than just these things that make the trip. When we welcome you aboard as guests we also share the history, the wildlife, and the pleasure of a cruise with new friends. We think of our trip as a whole West Coast experience, and so do our guests.

Our tours can be booked individually or as a private tour.

Rough Seas?

Our tours are in mostly sheltered waters and the “Raincoast Maiden” is equipped with state-of-the-art hydraulic stabilizers to provide a smooth ride. On the rare occasions we do encounter questionable sea conditions, we turn back at the harbour entrance and do a cruise of the inlet instead. The price will be reduced accordingly.

Best guided boat trip value ever

“It is easy to say that this is one of most wonderful boat trips a person could ever take. You get the joy of seeing wildlife while being guided by two folks who love to share what they know about and their love for where they live – all while being aboard a comfortable well-maintained boat. The price is a total bargain for the value and the sheer joy of spending time with the owners in such a beautiful place.”
