SpringTide Whale Watching & Charters

Check in 30 minutes before departure at our street-level office at 1119 Wharf Street. Once you're checked in, your Zodiac skipper will escort you down to the dock, where you'll gear up in a full-body flotation suit worn over your clothes. These cruiser suits help keep you warm and dry, but we still recommend dressing in warm layers, it’s always cooler out on the water, especially at speed! Get ready for an exciting and immersive ride close to the ocean’s surface. Once on the water, your adventure truly begins. With the wind in your face and the ocean spray at your side, your skipper will navigate the Salish Sea in search of whales and other marine life. You might encounter orcas, humpbacks, sea lions, harbor seals, porpoises, and a variety of seabirds. Your skipper will provide expert commentary throughout the journey, sharing insights about the animals, their behaviors, and the ecosystem they call home.

    Went on the zodiac with Capt Cam. We were so glad we decided to book this at the end of our trip it did not disappoint. So many whales and in the small boat we got lucky enough to get very close to a couple. Can claimed it was luck anyway but Cam definitely put the boat in the right spot. Before heading back we got to go by an island filled with sea lions also very cool.

  • A definite must do

    We were hoping to see some whales and we were not disappointed. We could not believe how many whales we were fortunately able to see. Our captain “Cam” was very knowledgeable and informative about the wildlife and knew where the best chances of seeing the whales. Also we saw sea lions and seals. We are 100% glad we did this tour.

  • Fantastic sighting!

    We saw two pods of whales, a total of eight with two males. Fantastic! We then were taken to where seals were sunning themselves.

    This was such an amazing experience. We got to see an orca pod swimming right in front of us! Our guide was hilarious and made it fun.
