Full description
Experience the world’s most beautiful coastline on a 3-hour marine wildlife tour from Victoria, British Columbia, and immerse yourself in the majestic beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Juan de Fuca and Haro Strait are renowned for their ample wildlife, including animals such as Steller and California sea lions, humpback whales, sea and river otters, Minke whales, harbor seals and many marine birds to name a few. You will travel on-board an open-top Zodiac boat to race across the seas. In a smaller, open style 12 passenger vessel, you can be on scene with the wildlife faster and get once in a lifetime exposure to the true west coast elements.

    De door mij geboekte activiteit leek heel even niet eens door te gaan, omdat ik bij Orca Spirit voor de genoemde dag en tijd de enige was die zich had aangemeld. Echter, na enkele belletjes kon ik een uurtje later terecht bij Eagle View (Fisherman's Wharf). Een gouden greep! Hebben vooral veel humpbackwhales gezien, tot op minder dan 20 meter van de boot. Indrukwekkend!
