1/2 Day Whale Watching Tours
|
 |
It is with great excitement that Orcella Expeditions offers multi-day wildlife viewing packages, The Magnificent Seven. The natural splendor of the Blackfish and Broughton Archipelagos is so great that we can predictably see seven species of marine mammals. Most famed are the Orca and indeed, the area is the most densely trafficked area of Killer Whales in the world. September is a wonderful time to see hundreds of Pacific White-sided Dolphins, Dalls and Harbour Porpoise, Minke Whales, Steller Sea Lions, and Harbour Seals. Together these marine mammals are the Magnificent Seven and, often, there are eight as Humpback Whales too are found in increasing numbers in this area.
The Magnificent Seven Expedition will allow for participants to get so much more than just a snapshot of the wildlife. With full days on the water, it is possible to gain true insight into the full marine ecosystem. The M7 Expedition provides a rare opportunity to observe the characteristics and behaviours of the wondrous marine mammals. Thereby, this tour is ideal for all with a true love and respect for the ocean and its life. |

Awe-inspiring biodiversity! In addition To the Magnificent Seven, the myriad of islands is home to large numbers of Black Bear, Northern River Otter, Gray Wolf, American Mink, Northern Raccoon and Black-tailed Deer. The number and diversity of migrating birds is also a source of wonder. The full richness of the marine ecosystem is reflected in its awe-inspiring diversity of invertebrate life.
