Broken Group Islands Wildlife Cruise

Whales, Wildlife & Spectacular Scenery!

Broken Group Islands Wildlife Tour

Whale Watching & Wildlife Tours in the beautiful Broken Group Islands

Discover the rugged beauty and view the wildlife of Barkley Sound from the comfort of our spacious motor yacht, as we take you on an exciting wildlife tour through the scenic Broken Group Islands. We’ll look out for whales, bears and sea otters, see numerous eagles and seals, visit a large colony of sea lions, and keep a sharp lookout for the many other seabird and mammal species.

Our cruise begins in Ucluelet Inlet, an active fishing harbour, rich in history and blessed with an abundance of wildlife. Upon entering the Broken Group Islands section of Pacific Rim National Park, our journey takes us past deserted beaches and unspoiled scenery as we wind our way through the sheltered waters of these islands.

Experience the magic of being anchored in pristine surroundings: savour the silence and take in the magnificent scenery while enjoying an optional gourmet lunch prepared by a local chef or bring your own lunch while we supply the refreshments.
