Fantastic Whale Watching! - We had a fantastic whale watching trip with Orca Spirit! Emma & Ryan are very enthusiastic and knowledgeable which really added to the trip. We saw SO many whales - tales and even breaching! It was beautiful :) Highly recommend Orca Spirit - this was my second trip and I would choose them again next time I'm in Victoria.

Exciting and Fun - What an awesome experience. The tour was filled with great information, and the crew did everything they could to help us see as much marine life as possible. We lucked out...Humpbacks galore :) The tour was safe and so much fun. We met people from so many places around the world. This was our second tour with this company, and saw orcas and humpbacks September 2023. Will be back again.

A once in a lifetime experience to get close to whales, seals, sea lions, otters and nature - The zodiac was definitely the best way to see the whales and we were not disappointed. Liam was awesome very knowledgeable and fun he knew exactly where to go. We were able to take the best pictures and videos and could not have been closer. The whole staff were great and helpful. It was a dream come true experience. My wife and daughters all said there teeth were cold from smiling so much. Thank you.

Zodiac whale watching is the way to do it! - Mick, our captain was great, he had a lot of interesting information to share and was able to show us a lot of wild life including sea otter, sea lions, seal, bald eagles and so many humpbacks!!! including a mother and calf! The seal lion flinging the octopus into the air before his meal was terrific! I have been on whale watching tours before but never by zodiac, the zodiac was my favourite by far, its a nimble way to get around quickly and feels great to be so close to the water! Thank you for a great afternoon!

Breathtaking Adventure - Shane gave us a memorable whale watching tour, seeing hump back whales, a group of killer whales as well as sea lions. He was very knowledgeable about the whales we saw, their life span, breeding and travelling habits. A breathtaking trip, thank you Orca Spirit Adventure

Disappointed - Sadly very foggy. I think I had a glimpse of a grey blob for a few seconds that they said was a whale. Seals and sea lions were visible and audible . Annoyingly the driver kept telling us how marvelous it was.
