Tours operate rain or shine! Safety is our priority and, in extreme weather conditions or high winds, adventures may be cancelled at the discretion of our qualified crew. We will be in touch should this be the case.

The whale watching portion of this adventure has no restrictions, but Zodiac vessels are not suitable for anyone with a history of serious medical conditions including but not limited to; current neck, back, spinal injuries/conditions, recent surgery, and/or current or suspected pregnancy. Any passengers with the aforementioned will be turned away due to safety risks. There is also a minimum height restriction of 120 cm (4 ft) and the minimum weight required is 23 kg (50 lbs) – this typically applies to children under 7 years old. The maximum weight is 159 kgs (350 lbs). For safety reasons, all passengers must be able to board and disembark independently, as assistance during these processes could pose significant safety risks.

You will only see whales on the whale watching portion of this combo!

There are bathrooms on our catamarans and at our office. For the sightseeing component of this combo, the RHIBs are open-air boats, and therefore do not have washrooms on board. We recommend that you use the public washrooms (located next to our office) before your departure.

There are snacks available for purchase on the whale watching portion of this tour, and there are no snacks or beverages available on the Zodiac-style boats. You can bring your own snacks on board; however, do not consume too many liquids as there are no bathrooms onboard.

While there is pay-parking on Granville Island, it fills up very quickly! We recommend to allot more time to park before your check-in time, as the parking lot between 10:00 am to 6:00 pm might be already full.

No, our boats are custom-built for whale watching with passengers in mind. Captain and crew will also do their best to minimize the impact of the sea. However, if you are prone to seasickness, we recommend you purchase non-drowsy Gravol from a pharmacy prior to your adventure with us.

Yes! Bring your camera and/or video camera to capture the experience. We also recommend that you bring a plastic bag or other waterproof case to keep your camera safe and dry during transit. The boat will come to a complete stop for photo opportunities.

Yes, all of our captains and boats are certified by Transport Canada. Zodiacs move fast but are very stable. There will be no 360-degree turns on this tour. These adventures are designed for fast sightseeing and not a thrill park ride.

Reservations are definitely recommended. Adventures often sell out and we don’t want you to be disappointed.
