The absolute best whale watching tours you can get are with Bill and his amazing Crew out of Port McNeill! The stories and knowledge they share with us while we’re… read more surrounded by stunning wildlife activities are fascinating. Bill is a legend and makes sure to approach the animals with caution and gives them enough space, which is important to me. One of the best places in the world for seeing Orcas and Humpback whales. Also sea lions, bald eagles and sea otters! You have to accept you’re spoiled after being on these tours 😛 🙂

  Not only did we see many wonderful sea creatures (porpoises, dolphins, humpbacks, orcas, sealions and more) we learned many things about them all- thanks to our extremely knowledgeable and passionate… read more guides. Thank you for a beautiful, informative and unforgettable day!

  We had the best time with Mackay whale watching. The family who runs it were all so friendly and captain Bill is a hoot!

They knew exactly where… read more to go for the whales. Captain never gets too close but you are definitely close enough for amazing photos don’t worry about that! After we’d seen the orcas we saw a bear foraging on the beach then he said we were off to the humpbacks! Saw lots of humpbacks and seals and some sea lions. Dolphins and porpoises too!

The lunch served was hot and delicious and dessert too.
Your left at 10 and we got back at 3pm. It was the perfect amount of time. The staff were super knowledgeable and could tell us which whales we were looking at.

I will DEFINITELY be booking with them next time we go up that way! The scenery in between the islands was absolutely beautiful I can’t wait to return.
