Whale Watching

Share  Facebook Twitter Pinterest

Witness the great whale families of the Pacific Northwest as they breach and sing.

Orca, humpback, grey, and minke whales inhabit the waters of the Salish Sea and the North Pacific and have been returning in higher numbers, to the delight of first-time and dedicated whale watchers. Whale watching expeditions into areas of great marine abundance often reward visitors with sightings of seals, porpoises, dolphins, aquatic birds, and the occasional wolf or grizzly. Indigenous guides combine whale watching expeditions with storytelling visits to water-access coastal cultural sites.
