'Beautiful British Columbia' proclaim the number plates, and for once without hyperbole. Sensational wildlife regularly presents itself amidst a backdrop of rugged scenery. Whale and bear watching are the big draw picture cards but other players like seals, elk and beaver ensure a truly authentic British Columbian wildlife encounter.
  • Orca, Humpback and Grey whale watching with experienced naturalist guides
  • Walking tour of Pacific Rim National Park
  • Observation of the 'mythical' Grizzly bear in its natural surroundings
  • Vancouver Island, the largest island on the North American Pacific coast
  • Search for Black bears on the rocky shoreline of Clayoquot Sound
