Whale Watching With Purpose: How Your Tour Supports Conservation

🧭 1. We Follow All Marine Mammal Viewing Guidelines

We are committed to operating in full compliance with the Be Whale Wise regulations, which are designed to minimize stress and disturbance to marine mammals. That means respecting minimum approach distances, reducing speed near whales, cutting engines when safe to do so, and never attempting to alter animal behavior.

Our captains and naturalists receive training to ensure every decision on the water prioritizes wildlife wellbeing—and we’re proud to be part of the Pacific Whale Watch Association, a leader in responsible whale watching practices.

🐋 2. We Inspire a Conservation Ethic Through Education

Each tour is guided by professional naturalists who are passionate about the ocean and eager to share their knowledge. Through storytelling, facts, and respectful observation, guests learn not just about what they’re seeing, but why it matters.

Understanding the threats whales face—like ocean noise, ship strikes, pollution, and prey availability—helps turn moments of awe into motivation to protect.

🧠 3. We Support Citizen Science and Research

Our sightings contribute to regional knowledge of whale activity. We regularly share photo-identifications and behavioural observations with research organizations and regional databases, helping track individuals and inform marine mammal management.

Some of our naturalists are also researchers or students, and they bring the latest science right into the tour experience, bridging the gap between tourism and conservation science.

🌱 4. We’re Advocates for Stewardship on and off the Water

From supporting local beach cleanups to educating guests on sustainable choices, we see conservation as a shared responsibility. We’re proud to be part of a community that values marine life and to host guests who leave with a deeper appreciation for the coast and its wildlife.
