Yes! Parksville is strategically located in the heart of Biggs Killer Whales and  Humpback Whales travel territories. With the help of a large whale spotting network, we are able to locate whales on most days during the spring and summer months. Our vessel can travel great distances in minimal time, ensuring more time spent with the whales. We are proud to announce that in 2020 we had a success rate of 97% for the season. 

While whales can be spotted to varying degrees twelve months a year in the Salish Sea, the spring and summer months are by far the most exciting. Biggs Killer Whales are found in our waters year round with the best sightings taking place from March to November. Humpback Whales arrive in our water in April and are here feeding until late December.
