We saw 2 humpback whales (Notcho and Zipper,) seals, sea lions, sea otters, eagles.....if there was wildlife to see, we saw it. Comfortable Zodiac boat, new waterproof flotation suits and they tool. They took enough time to outfit us with suits that fit as best as possible. Fun, safe, exciting......great experience, which I could give 10 stars.

This is a great compromise between a zodiac tour and a big boat tour. The MV Blackfish is small,…read morenimble, and powerful like a zodiac: it can cover a lot of water quickly and can go in pretty close to shore. But like a big boat, it is covered and has a bathroom (which was a spousal requirement). It has a decent cockpit at the back for sightseeing when the boat is going slow. Captain Cam took us out a couple of days after stormy weather in late October. When I booked the trip, he checked the forecast and told me that there would be 2-meter swells but that we'd be fine. We went from Ucluelet through the Broken Islands to Bamfield, where we watched some Orca for a while. This part of the trip was relatively calm. Then we headed through some rougher water at the outer edge of the group to a big rock covered with sea lions and spray. But the Blackfish was up to it and its experienced skipper read the water well. It was an exhilarating trip. The Broken Group is something else again and I'm glad that he gave us a good tour through it.

We checked out an ad in a coffee shop for Beachcomber Ocean Tours and I spoke with Cam MacPherson, the tour operator. We had a tour the same day, and it couldn't have been better. Cam is both knowledgable and personable, and not only did we see whales, but eight of us had a whale of a good time.

I had the Canadian Eh, BBQ sandwich on a ciabatta bun. It was tasty but small. For $6 extra I upgraded the side to the seafood chowder. I found it a bit too salty for my taste.

All four of us had a great trip and enjoyed spending the day with Matt and Salish, his Chesapeake retriever. All of the fish were cleaned and ready to drop off at the processor.

Caleb is an excellent guide and provided so much local knowledge about the island. I had never even heard of bear tours before coming to Vancouver Island and it didn't disappoint! We saw 4+ black bears along the beautiful shores of the Broken Islands. It was such a peaceful trip and wonderful way to see the island. During the whale watch tour we saw harbour seals, sea lions and then two humpback whales! A mother and cub swimming side by side- it was truly magical! We even saw a breech!

I went for a whale watching tour today. While the experience was okay, this review is for 1 star…read morebecause of their fairly terrible customer service. Tour: we took the 8 am whale watching tour out of Ucelulet. It was so foggy the entire 3.5 hours of the tour we could barely see 5 meters ahead. I know it wasn't there fault, but the staff barely interacted with the passengers and we were so bored we fell asleep. That's a pricey $140 nap. The coffee and blankets provided were nice. Customer service: while in their T&Cs, it was nice that if you don't see any whales you can do another tour for free. But you couldn't use it for a different tour AND it's standby only. So there's no guarantee you'll get a seat. Their staff handled this news terribly and kind of pulled it out of their hat without any transparency or apology. To top it off, we grabbed lunch up the street and 1.5 hours later came back to use the washroom before hitting the road back home. There is an elderly lady that works there and she literally snapped her fingers at me to get me out of the washroom, even when explaining I literally just came from one of their tours that morning. There's many other companies that offer these tours. I suggest looking elsewhere. When you're spending $140 for an experience, I expect incredible customer service, not being snapped at like a child.
