Steveston Seabreeze Adventures is a whale watching company based in the historic fishing village of Steveston, BC. We offer sea lion and eco-tours as well as fishing charters. Our trained naturalists will guide you through the breathtaking Gulf Islands in search for killer whales, gray whales, humpback whales, sea lions and pacific white-sided dolphins! Our semi-enclosed vessels offer you the best

of both worlds, outside back and upper viewing decks and a protected inside cabin. We only take 23 passengers per vessel so the is plenty of room to walk around with a 360 degree views. New for 2017 we have an open 12 passenger vessel. Ask about our shuttle and guaranteed sightings!

There's a reason bald eagles are one of the Salish Sea's most iconic birds ๐Ÿฆ…๐ŸŸ

With eyesight up to eight times sharper than ours, a bald eagle can spot a fish from high above the water before swooping in and snatching it from the surface with remarkable precision.

Their powerful talons are perfectly adapted for gripping slippery prey, making them exceptional hunters. But they're also opportunistsโ€”feeding on spawned-out salmon and even stealing the occasional meal from other birds when the chance arises.

The Salish Sea is much more than a place to go whale watching.

It's one of the world's most diverse and productive marine ecosystemsโ€”a place where nutrient-rich waters support an incredible web of life, from tiny plankton to humpback whales.

Every tide, every season, and every wildlife-first encounter tells a different story. That's why we never get tired of heading out on the water, and why so many of our guests leave with a new appreciation for this remarkable corner of the world.

Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, there's always something new to discover.

๐Ÿ“ Join us daily from Steveston at 9 AM or 2 PM throughout August.

Think those whiskers are just for looks? Think again ๐Ÿฆญ

Harbour seals and sea lions rely on their whiskers to "feel" the water around them. These highly specialized whiskers can detect the faintest ripples left behind by swimming fish, allowing them to hunt even in low visibility.

It's like having built-in underwater radar, one of the many incredible adaptations that helps these marine mammals thrive in the Salish Sea.

Have you ever noticed just how long their whiskers are?!

Photography Tip Tuesday ๐Ÿ“ธ Don't just zoom in...

Sometimes your best wildlife photo is the one that shows where the animal lives.

A humpback against the backdrop of Mount Baker. Or an orca beneath the dense forests of the gulf islands.

The habitat tells just as much of the story as the wildlife itself.

And perhaps most importantly, remember that the best wildlife photographs are taken without asking wildlife to give up their space. Great images come from patience, good fieldcraft and respecting viewing distances, not getting closer.

Think whale watching season ends with summer? Think again ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‚

September is one of our favourite months to be out on the Salish Sea, and for good reason.

๐Ÿ‹ Humpback whales are still feeding in our local waters.
๐Ÿ‹ Bigg's killer whales continue to travel through the region.
๐ŸŒŠ The summer crowds begin to quieten, making for a more relaxed experience on the water.
๐Ÿ‚ The crisp autumn air and changing light create some of the most beautiful conditions of the seasonโ€”especially for photographers.

Every day on the Salish Sea is different, but September consistently delivers incredible wildlife, stunning scenery, and a quieter pace that many of our returning guests love.

If you've been waiting for the perfect time to book, don't overlook September.

Ever finished a whale watching tour wishing you could stay out there longer?

This one is for you.

On Sunday, September 20, weโ€™re heading out for a special 6โ€“7 hour Extended Zodiac Adventure โ€” created for wildlife lovers, photographers, and whale enthusiasts who want more time to explore the Salish Sea.

With a small group aboard our open Zodiac, weโ€™ll have more time to search for wildlife, travel through spectacular coastal scenery, and experience more of the beautiful costal waters of BC.

๐Ÿ“ธ Bringing your camera? Even better.

Our open Zodiac offers unobstructed views, and youโ€™ll be joined by a naturalist with a photography background. With 6โ€“7 hours on the water, this trip is designed for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers who want more time to explore, observe, and photograph the Salish Sea.

And because 6โ€“7 hours is a proper adventure, weโ€™ll make a shore stop along the way where you can stretch your legs, explore the area, and purchase food or refreshments before heading back out.

๐Ÿ‹ More time on the water searching for marine wildlife

The Salish Sea isn't just home to incredible marine mammals. It's also a paradise for bird lovers ๐Ÿฆ๐ŸŒŠ

Here are four birds we're lucky enough to see regularly on our tours:

๐Ÿฆ… Bald Eagle: Their nests can weigh over a tonne, making them some of the largest bird nests in the world, and many are used and added to year after year.

๐ŸคŽ Turkey Vulture: With an incredible sense of smell, they're one of the few birds able to detect carrion from high above, helping keep ecosystems clean.

๐Ÿ–ค Cormorant: Unlike most waterbirds, their feathers aren't fully waterproof, so you'll often spot them standing with their wings spread wide to dry after a dive.

๐Ÿ’™ Great Blue Heron: These patient hunters can stand almost perfectly still for minutes before striking with lightning-fast precision to catch fish.

Which of these birds is your favourite to spot? ๐Ÿ‘‡
