Our Boats

Great Pacific Adventures has been operating whale watching tours from the Inner Harbour of Victoria, BC since 1995. Fully insured, bonded and Transport Canada certified Great Pacific Adventures takes pride in its reputation for maintaining the highest level of customer satisfaction and reliability.

Our whale watching vessels are equipped with the finest high-tech safety equipment available, as passenger safety is our number one priority. Our guides/skippers are safety certified by Transport Canada and are required to hold valid first aid, and radio tickets.

Each adventure is complimented by the expertise of our local marine naturalists and biologists, providing commentary and educational information about our marine eco-systems and their unique inhabitants. As well, our boats are equipped with hydrophones to hear the whales talk!

The King Salmon is a West Coast built 45-foot ocean cruiser with capacity of up to 47 passengers.

Choose your adventures from the comfort of our heated cabin, or from one of two outside viewing decks. An on board washroom facility and coffee and tea service ensures passengers a comfortable experience.
