Just past the islands and inlets that protect Prince Rupert is a marine world that awaits discovery. The waters in this region are frequented by humpback whales, gray whales, orca and minke whales. These whales use this passage as a highway for migration from north to south, also used as feeding grounds. So depending on your time of visit you'll discover different species. Plus sea lions, curious sea otters, porpoises, seals and a variety of marine birds. This cruise provides a complete experience, including interpretive information about the region.
