The voyage

Three hours on the orca passage

From Dock B in Sidney we cross to Haro Strait, the summer and fall highway of resident and transient orcas, with humpbacks, Dall's porpoises and Steller sea lions along the way. A naturalist narrates and logs every sighting live; we keep 200 m back and turn the engines down near whales.

Orcas
Residents and Bigg's transients, often off Turn Point and Stuart Island.
Humpbacks
Back in big numbers every fall; listen for the blow.
Lighthouses & islands
Fir-topped Gulf Islands and the San Juans on the horizon.
Our boat
24 seats, heated cabin, open bow deck, washroom aboard.
