What To Expect
Howe Sound UNESCO biosphere reserve is home to a diverse array of marine wildlife, including seals, sea lions, porpoises, whales and various seabird species. This adventure provides opportunities for guests to get up-close and personal with these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat without disturbing them.
The tour navigates through breathtaking scenery including rugged coastlines, lush forests, and towering mountains. Guests can admire panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and capture stunning photo opportunities.
Seals are known for their friendly interactions with humans in the water, they are often curious and may approach snorkelers to investigate them. If you choose not to splash in the water you can take the Kayaks that we have on board and soak up all the magnificent views and wildlife surrounding us.
We understand that everyone’s comfort level is different. That’s why, during the summer season (May to September), we offer kayaking as a great alternative or complement to snorkeling.
During the fall (October–November) and spring (March–April) seasons, we offer kayaking only, as the water temperatures are cooler and less suitable for snorkeling.
