Amazing Experience in Howe Sound!! - The Howe Sound was fantastic and our guide was a pure delight. He showed us the beautiful purple starfish, doe eyed seals, and a few humpback whales that were in the sound which were unexpected. Our driver, Lara or Laura, was so kind as she picked us up and drove us back to our hotel. We chatted with her about her travels and ours. So welcoming and we enjoyed her thoroughly! We would highly recommend this team and their entire crew!

Unforgettable experience! - I had an amazing experience on the Seawell's Howe Sound Sea Safari! I have experiences a few of the different boat tours in and around Vancouver and this is by far my favourite! The Marina itself is in an amazing spot, with time to explore Horseshoe Bay before or after the trip. Our Guide Thomas was fantastic! He was full of knowledge and we all learnt so much from him. He made the trip so much fun with some exciting turns and spins on the boat. We all learnt so much about the Howe Sound destinations, hostory and wild life. We saw lots of seals, marine birds, a sea lion (even though it was out of season or them!) and we were so lucky to see a pod of 3 orcas on our way back to the marina! Truely an unforgettable trip and I cannot wait to book more of their experiences!

Unbelievable Howe Sound - I highly recommend Sewell’s Marina. “Their team is second to none.”  We did The Deep Fjord Sea Safari and it was incredible, we saw eagles, seals and a bear! Sea Safari is a must to do in Vancouver (horseshoe bay) for tourism. I was completely impressed and it exceeded my expectations. In a word amazing!

Super fun sea safari cruise! - We enjoyed the whole experience. It was a challenge to put the wetsuits on, but we were glad we were wearing them when it started to rain, and also when the captain sped through Howe Sound allowing us to feel the icy water on our faces. The captain slowed down so we could see the bald eagles, birds and sea lions and pointed out several interesting sights along the tour. The tour was a lot of fun.

Sewells boat trips out of horseshoe bay - Thomas was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The weather was great sunny with white wispy clouds. A recommendation is to turn the boat so both sides can face the shore to view the sights. Maybe have a few petitie survival suits. Appreciate your participation in the tourism challenge it gave me a chance to experience the highly recommended excursion.
