Wild Whale Watching Experience - Open Air Vessel
Description
We are Granville Island's pioneer (original) whale watching company. We offer intimate tours guided by marine naturalists who are passionate about wildlife and conservation. We do not attempt to influence the behaviours of the wildlife we encounter. Instead, we are able to observe animals behaving naturally and in their natural environment. The animals are never asked to perform. We contribute the data we collect toward marine based research and conservation initiatives. We are accredited as an authorized whale watching vessel and can legally approach wildlife closer than other vessels can, while still maintaining a respectful and safe distance.

An amazing experience. Mel our guide was incredible, knowledgeable about all things whales and respectful of marine conservation. We saw humpback whales and lots of them. On the way back we saw a pod of orcas. I never felt we were rushed or on a time limit, we said we were heading back three time but never quite made it as they stopped for more whale watching each time. Sara the captain of the vessel rode the waves brilliantly. Very bumpy outbound, we got soaked !! A brilliant must do experience. Thank you for this emotional experience. Darren & Nik. Xxx
An amazing trip with wild whales! Very organised right from the booking process to finishing the tour. The guide was super knowledgeable & we managed to see humpback whales & orcas! Perfect trip!
Jasmine and Darko were excellent tour guides and we had a fantastic time seeing orcas, sealions and hump back whales
Absolutely incredible experience today! Jasmine and Darko were fantastic crew onboard and we saw orca, sealions and best of all 3 humpback whales really close to the boat!
On our tour, we saw both orcas and humpback whales.
Es klingt so, als hätten Sie einen tollen Tag auf dem Wasser verbracht. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat und Sie sich die Zeit für eine Bewertung genommen haben!
Great experience! The staff was knowledgeable and easy to work with. They made the operation very fun and easy. We got to see plenty of humpback whales in about 4 total hours. Would highly recommend!

Would recommend this to anyone. Guide Julia and captain Darko extremely professional and knowledgeable. They made sure the whole trip was 5 hours or so that memories are made of
Thank you so much Stewart, we really value your kind words and recommendation. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to the crew!
Incredible experience with Julia!! A day we’ll always remember. We saw humpbacks breach over and over again!
WOW, sounds like you had an amazing experience. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know and are so glad you had such an amazing time!
Great experience. We had two captains as one was training i think and I think we lost a but of information on direction and the whales because if it. Our guide Sarah was great and really enthusiastic but she brought a microphone with her and never used it so we struggled to hear. We saw lots of whales even though couldn't get too close. Still amazing to see beautiful animals. About 4hes we were out for.
Thank you so much for your feedback we really appreciate it. We are so glad you got to see some of the amazing wildlife that we have here!
