Sea Otter Soup
Seeing sea otters in the wild is always a delight! Some sea otters are quite shy but this particular group doesn’t seem to mind us coming over for a visit.

Big Bear Family
Luckily this sow and her triplets like Ucluelet as much as we do. Recently we have seen her almost daily.

Our Lucky Day
This week we were lucky enough to experience a great wolf sighting in the Broken Group Islands! We saw a splash, then saw a wolf swimming across a small channel & get out on the next island, shake himself, stare at us for a moment, then disappear into the bushes!
Thanks to Dane McArthur for letting us share his photo.
The boys are leaving town
The “boys club” has thinned out considerably in recent days. Only a few California sea lions remain as most have left the area and headed south to meet up with their ladies. Luckily they don’t stay away for long, so we eagerly await their return in late summer.
One Big Momma!
Recently we’ve been lucky enough to get the odd sighting of this sow and her two cubs
Spring in the Broken Group Islands
Spring is a beautiful time of year in the Broken Group Islands when the colours are vibrant, the water so clear that it gets hard to tell where the water and air meet.
Now Open for the Season
Yesterday we ran our first tour of the season. We had sunny skies, good views and wildlife sightings, a delicious gourmet meal catered by Heartwood Kitchen while anchored in the Broken Group Islands and we even saw three Gray whales!
Heading Home
After an unexpected delay we finally left Victoria harbour yesterday morning to make the journey up the West coast. There are MANY waves to cross along the way but luckily the weather was (mostly) in our favour. The Raincoast Maiden arrived in Ucluelet this afternoon, safe and sound. We’re thrilled to be back! Our tours will start on May 4th.
