What To Expect On Your Whale Watching Tour
Experience some the best whale watching Vancouver Island has to offer as you step outside Ucluelet's front door and explore one of the most beautiful places on Canada's Pacific Coast. Ucluelet boasts some of Vancouver Island's best whale watching plus breathtaking scenery and wildlife, including the Broken Group Islands within the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve.
The most common whales sighted in the Ucluelet area are gray whales, humpback whales, and the occasional killer whale (orca). On this tour you will also spot sea lions, seals, eagles, shore birds, and occasionally bears along the shoreline at low tide.
