Having Lunch
Spectacular images of a humpback whale lunge feeding, taken by one of our guests, Ralph Bishop.
It appears that the bird – a Common Murre – managed to scramble away in a mad panic, unharmed!

Last Chance …
It is not too late yet to come out with us before we close for the season – we’d love to see you aboard!
A Meal & Setting to Remember
The lunch alone is worth taking our trip for! The food is delicious (prepared by Heartwood Kitchen restaurant in Ucluelet), delivered to you in a wicker basket on a luxury yacht while anchored amidst the gorgeous scenery of the Broken Group Islands – for most of our guests this is a unique experience.
The Cobb salad is shown here – other choices are salmon or chicken and all of the menu options are finger licking good! See the full menu here: Gourmet Lunch Menu
Sea Otter Soup
Seeing sea otters in the wild is always a delight! Some sea otters are quite shy but this particular group doesn’t seem to mind us coming over for a visit.
Bald Eagles aplenty!
Although there are lots of Bald Eagles in our area, we never tire of seeing these majestic birds. Here are a couple of spectacular images taken from our boat by one of our guests, Danny McCreadie. Thanks, Danny, for allowing us share these!
Great Week on the Water
Last week was a good one for us in terms of wildlife sightings. We saw a Gray whale one day, a Humpback the next, then a group of Orcas and we also saw a healthy Black Bear sow with her TRIPLETS a couple of time. Most days we saw sea otters, all this along with the “usual” sightings of sea lions, seals, a multitude of eagles and other sea birds.
Our Lucky Day
This week we were lucky enough to experience a great wolf sighting in the Broken Group Islands! We saw a splash, then saw a wolf swimming across a small channel & get out on the next island, shake himself, stare at us for a moment, then disappear into the bushes!
Thanks to Dane McArthur for letting us share his photo.
