From the start, the crew were welcoming, happy and ready to go. Capt Valerie was an outstanding captain and followed to set rules for distance and area to a tee! We were on top so Connor was our Naturalist and he was extremely knowledgeable, VERY aware of his surrounding and of the wildlife and hard set rules (Kennedy was in the main cabin adn we heard she was awesome as well). We saw 15 Orcas, 2 Humpbacks, 2 Porpoise, 1 Sea Lion... Absolutely fantastic afternoon AND it was a beautiful day as well!
We went at the perfect time to see orcas from the A34 and A50 clans, in addition to Quartz and Squiggles the humpback whales! Conner, Briar, and Kennedy did an amazing job finding the whales and explaining whale habits. We even were able to listen (by using the hydrophone) to the orcas communicate. It was a beautiful day and one to remember!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are so happy to hear that you were able to see the A34 and A50 orca families, as well as Quartz and Squiggles, and that you enjoyed listening to the orcas communicate! We're also so pleased to hear that Conner, Briar, and Kennedy helped make your day one to remember. Thank you for choosing Prince of Whales. We hope to welcome you aboard again soon!
Experience was great. All staff, were great. Logan was full of information, very knowledgeable. Looking forward to Kennedy’s photos. Shame we didn’t see Orca’s, however our trip was full, Humpbacks, Otters, Dall’s Porpoises, Bald Eagles and Seals. A very enjoyable afternoon all round. Certainly a bonus coming about 14,000 km’s from Australia. Sandra 🙏
Thank you for your wonderful review, Sandra! We’re so glad to hear you had such an enjoyable afternoon with us. While we understand seeing orcas is always a highlight, we’re thrilled that you were able to experience such an incredible variety of wildlife, including humpback whales, otters, Dall’s porpoises, bald eagles, and seals. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Logan and the rest of the crew, we’re so happy that their knowledge and passion helped make your experience memorable. We hope you enjoy Kennedy’s photos and that your visit from Australia was filled with amazing memories. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you aboard again someday!
We had the best time with our guide Logan. He is a walking encyclopedia. Very smart and funny and checks in regularly to see if everyone is ok. We saw humpbacks, eagles, minke whale, porpoise and sea otters.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you had such a great time with Logan. We'll be sure to share your kind words with him, he'll be delighted to hear you enjoyed his knowledge, humour, and thoughtful care throughout the trip. Seeing humpbacks, a minke whale, porpoises, sea otters, and eagles is an incredible day on the water. Thanks for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
A wonderful whale watching tour! After booking, there was a bit of back and forth, as we had to rebook to the zodiac since the larger ship was not running. But it was so worth it! Our guide Logan was super knowledgeable about the area and knew so much about whales, currents, and wildlife! He made a huge effort and entertained us perfectly, showing us wonderful porpoises, bald eagles, and humpback whales without disturbing the animals! We really saw a lot and would go with him again anytime! It was great!
Vielen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass sich die Umbuchung auf das Zodiac für Sie so sehr gelohnt hat und Sie ein so besonderes Whale-Watching-Erlebnis hatten. Es ist schön zu hören, dass Logan mit seinem Wissen über Wale, Strömungen und die lokale Tierwelt sowie seiner unterhaltsamen Art Ihren Ausflug so bereichert hat. Ebenso freut es uns, dass Sie Schweinswale, Seeadler und Buckelwale in ihrer natürlichen Umgebung beobachten konnten und dabei ein respektvoller Umgang mit den Tieren gewährleistet war. Wir würden uns sehr freuen, Sie jederzeit wieder an Bord begrüßen zu dürfen!
Logan, our guide took us on an amazing trip in difficult weather. We saw porpoise, dolphins, stellar sea lions, sea otters eagles and more. He talked about each of the animals we saw, and taught us about them. He explained the water flow around the islands which was very informative. While we did not see a whale, the trip was a great value!!
We’re so glad you enjoyed your time on the water despite the challenging weather. While wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, it’s great to hear you were able to see such a variety of marine life and that Logan’s knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience both enjoyable and educational. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back again soon!
A great trip, led by the sympathetic and very knowledgeable Captain Kennedy. Seen every conceivable wildlife!
Hartelijk dank voor de 5-sterrenrecensie! Het is geweldig dat je tijdens je tour van zo’n ongelooflijke verscheidenheid aan wilde dieren hebt kunnen genieten. Bedankt voor je aanbeveling, en we hopen je binnenkort weer te mogen verwelkomen voor een nieuw avontuur!
Awesome afternoon Zodiac tour yesterday--fun, gorgeous. Connor was a great skipper-experienced and conscientious. It's early season, Victoria Day weekend, and some operators in area haven't started tours yet but real glad we chanced it. We hung out respectfully with total of 3 humpbacks and loved seeing otters, sea lions (Stellar's), bald eagles, harbor seals, harlequin ducks, and more. Look forward to getting out with these folks again, maybe when the resident orcas are back in the area. We capped an incredible day on the water with an evening paddle with sister company North Island Kayaks, led by Brad and Stella, who are excellent.
Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear you had such a fabulous day on the water with both our Zodiac Whale Watching tour and North Island Kayaks. It’s great to know Connor provided a safe and memorable experience while you spent time with humpbacks and all the incredible wildlife in the area. Early season can be special in its own way, and we’re glad you chose to join us over the Victoria Day weekend. We’ll also be sure to pass your kind words along to Brad and Stella for your evening paddle- they’ll be so happy to hear that it was a great way to cap off your day. We really appreciate you joining us, and we’d love to welcome you back again soon for another adventure!
Kennedy was our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and great pointing out different things for us to see. My son took me for Mother’s Day (a bucket list item for me) and even though the weather was not the best it was still an amazing day. I think we saw everything hit an orca. The humpback whale though more than made up for it. Stellar sea lions, otters, dalls porpoise, different sea birds (my favourite was the rhinoceros auklet) and seals. I felt like I was in a live episode of National Geographic! Kennedy gets a high five rating from me. Thanks for the great morning! A trip my son & I will treasure forever!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us, and for your lovely review! We’re thrilled to hear that your Mother’s Day bucket list trip was such a memorable one for you and your son. Kennedy will be so happy to hear your kind words- she truly loves sharing her knowledge of the Salish Sea and helping guests spot the incredible wildlife out there. Even with less-than-perfect weather, it sounds like the day delivered some unforgettable moments. Thank you again for joining us for such a meaningful celebration- we’d love to welcome you back anytime for another adventure!
To be honest, all the boat trips we did across Vancouver Island were amazing, and this operator is still good—but it was our least favourite. It has more of a big, commercial feel compared to the others, which felt more local, intimate and personal. They have larger capacity vessels, which is great if you’re booking last minute. We still saw orcas and eagles, and the staff were friendly. That said, if you’re looking for the best experience, I’d recommend Mackay Boat in Telegraph Cove or Eagle Wings in Victoria. Visited late August 2025.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear you still enjoyed seeing orcas and eagles and found our team friendly. We understand that our larger vessels can feel different from smaller, more intimate tours, and we appreciate that perspective. Our goal is to provide a comfortable and accessible experience while still delivering memorable wildlife encounters. We truly value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back on the water in the future.
