May to mid-October - daily marine wildlife watching tours. From mid-July until early October these tours focus on the world renowned Johnstone Strait, an area frequented by 16 different pods of killer whales and rated as one of the world's best spots to observe and photograph these magnificent Orcas.
The Inlet Tour is a beautiful scenic cruise that takes in the natural wonders of Knight Inlet -- tremendous waterfalls plummeting out of sheer rock faces, ancient glaciers with trails carved through the mountains and wild, remote rivers teeming with life.
This is one of the few pristine watersheds left in the area. We will walk up the valley to large moss-covered old growth trees and stunning waterfalls. Your guide will inform you about the rainforest and the various plant life that abounds.
Drifting quietly in your sea kayak, you will witness these powerful creatures as they quietly forage amongst the fresh sedge growth in the protected waters near our lodge. We are frequently fortunate to see new grizzly bear cubs, fresh from their winter den.
