We had an absolutely incredible experience whale watching with Des and Rodrigo. Both of them were brilliant and helped make the trip so special. We were lucky enough to see a family of orca and watch them hunt together - a real privilege to witness and made even better thanks to our guide and captain and their expert knowledge. Being on a smaller boat you felt much closer to the action, with excellent views at all times. Would highly recommend this company.

I've always wanted to go on a whale watch and I finally had my chance on May 27, 2025 on the semi-covered boat. I was not disappointed! We had so much fun! Our guide was delightful! She was bright and full of such interesting information about the whales. She mentioned she's loved whales since she was a kid and you could tell her passion, as an adult, is still there. I learned a lot and enjoyed a beautiful day at sea. I was worried about being seasick. But I wasn't at all. Even ate sandwiches on the boat. It's a remarkable experience. We saw humpback whales, but no Orcas. I so badly wanted to go back the next day to find the Orcas. I highly recommend Vancouver Island Whale Watch!

Our guide Ali and skipper Rodrigo were excellent. We had slightly choppy waters but they were excellently navigated. Ali was so informative and we saw so much thanks to her knowledge and skill. It's quite difficult to capture the whales on camera but that's solved by Ali who takes great shots and provides them digitally after the experience!
