My husband and I went on their City and Seals boat tour and it's awesome that they run through the winter months. They have suits that keep you warm and are life jackets too. I am looking forward to visiting this summer to jet ski and hopefully get out on the paddle board as well. I recommend trying all you can here!

Prices are pretty reasonable and we chose the two hour option due to our limited time during the sunset period. The staff were busy but friendly and assisted us with our kayaks. They will brief you about the kayaks, safety and where to go. Now, I would select a longer time to truly appreciate Deep Cove's natural beauty when you aren't dodging other kayaks or boats. The traffic can be somewhat chaotic in the summer time and it is main area for a lot of boaters heading out of the cove. We kayak around three islands within our two hour option, but didn't relax as much as we want. Again, the salt water, slight wind, and being in the 80's made it a wonderful but brief time.

Great place to kayak, incredible views, definitely worth a visit…read more Equipment and gear were great and in great shape. Our guides were knowledgeable and got us in and out of our kayak without us getting our feet wet. I didn't give five stars for two reasons. First, the two guides seemed a bit lax, they mostly paddled with us instead of taking lead and sweep positions, despite the fact that two out of the six of us had never kayaked before. They did look back periodically to check on everyone, but it was still strange compared to other kayak tours I've been on. Second, they didn't take pictures of us, other tours I've been on do it as a matter of course and email or post pictures to everyone. Still, this was a very worthwhile experience, and everyone enjoyed the views, the seals we saw in the water, etc., and no one had trouble keeping up despite the wind and the range of both ages and kayaking experience.

We had an excellent adventure with this outfitting and guide service in early August, 2016. Our…read moreparty consisted of 3 experienced paddlers and one guide. We paddled for 6 days and camped for 5 nights. The scenery and whale watching aspects of the trip were excellent. The camps were comfortable and well supported by occasional re-supply from the base back in Port NcNiell. The camp on Sophia Island was particularly well appointed with already set tents, cots and a nice kitchen and sitting area. The food prepared by our guide was excellent and hearty. I would certainly recommend this group for paddlers of all levels of experience.

My wife and I spent 3 days/2 nights with Discovery Expeditions and had such a great time. Larry,…read morethe owner, was extremely welcoming and very knowledgeable. We learned a lot from him and enjoyed spending some time getting to know him. Our guide, Korry, was also excellent. He was also friendly and welcoming and made sure we were well fed and had a good time. There is never a guarantee of finding specific wildlife when you are out in the wild, but Larry and Korry knew the animals behaviors and made sure to stay up to date on recent patterns and updates from all the other local teams in order to give us the best chance to see orcas, humpbacks, eagles, seals, and lots of other wildlife while out kayaking. Even if we didn't see any whales the entire time, it still would have been a great trip. However, we did see lots of orca and humpbacks during our time. They even came right by our island one evening, where we could see them from our dinner table and hear them while sleeping in our tents. I highly recommend going with Larry and Discovery Expeditions. We hope to make another trip in the future.

Wow love this place. I came here with 2 other friends for River Rafting. We had a great time. The…read morewater level was somewhat low. So our guide had to get out of the raft couple of times to push the raft out of rocks. in between the River Rafting adventure, we also got out of our raft to do a short hike to the water fall. We also got our pictures taken there as well. Each raft could only hold a maximum of 6 people + the guide. Lunch was included in our adventure. It costed $125 to go River Rafting but it included the wetsuit, lunch and other gears. Also they posted pictures of our River Rafting session on Facebook for us to download. We also had the option to pay $30 for a USB with all photos loaded on it. Overall, I had a great time and will definitely come back. I am thinking of next time doing Kayaking. Also for River Rafting its better to go in June (I was told).

Came back again with some friends. This time, we did the Canyon one which was great. I've done it…read morebefore a few years ago so I kind of knew what to expect. My friends haven't done the Canyon one so it was new to them. They loved it as it was even more challenging and had more dips and rapids. I sat in the front of the raft with another friend, Lee. We got hammered by the big splash of water whenever our raft would dip down over the rocks and rapids. Our guide this time was Sam, he was great and funny. My friends can be a little 'excited' so I'm glad he was able to play along with their antics. The weather was insane yesterday. It was sunny when we drove there from Vancouver however by the time we got changed and started to take the bus to the starting point, it was snowing. Yes, that's right. It was snowing. When we got into the raft and while Sam was explaining the commands, it turned to hail and then rain. The first part of rafting, it was raining. By the time we finished, it was sunny so we had 4 seasons of weather. It made for an even better experience. There were only 2 rafts this time. Last time I went, there was 8 rafts. With only 2 rafts, it was better and more personable as we are able to joke around a bit more. They have a small sauna shack so when we got back, we basically went there to warm up. Again, I recommend coming here for rafting.

We rappeled, swam, waded, and scrambled our way through an unforgettable day!! My family and I have always loved white water rafting and hiking, so when I heard about West Coast Canyoning, I knew we had to try it! My mom was a bit intimidated, but these guides are incredible at teaching you the proper techniques and safety skills! They all took the time to check in with all of our comfort zones throughout the trip and found ways to support everyone! Our group ranged from people who were incredibly intimidated to people who threw themselves into the adventure, and we all had a blast! We ALL felt incredibly safe and were able to enjoy doing scary things safely because of our incredible guides! This is such a unique experience, so if you like being outside, water, climbing, hiking, adventure, pushing yourself, or just having fun, you NEED to try Canyoning through West Coast Canyoning!! I know this is a long review, but there are just so many great things to say about this company!!

You first learn how to handle the equipment and rappel down a small cliff. Once the group is comfortable you hike a little through some beautiful trails in our gorgeous back yard, change into a wetsuit (all equipments are provided), get acclimatized to the water, and rappel down waterfalls! A lot of fun. All day experience with hot chocolate and snacks in the middle. There are a couple small cliff jumps and natural water slides for bonus. It took me a really long time to jump off the first cliff (it was a very small height..) but everyone else jumped off like champs. Also if jumping is not for you, FX sets up ropes and belays you down the whole 1-2m :). Not long of a drive from burnaby. Everyone in the group was really friendly. We were lucky to have Eric join us for the day to take photos (I have yet to see) and FX also manages takes some photos. Go while the weather is nice!
