This tour features black bears and explores the fjord inlets of Clayoquot Sound. During the winter, local black bears are in semi-hibernation. Come May, they leave their dens and head for the closest food source – the ocean! While the bears forage in the intertidal zone, you can unobtrusively observe and photograph their behaviour. You will experience the tour aboard an open-air, rescue-style, 24′ rigid-hulled Zodiac suitable for this calm water program. The vessel’s shallow draft is especially good for manoeuvring in the small sheltered bays while you are watching for bears and learning about this unique environment.

Knight Inlet Lodge is located 80 km (50 mi) North of Campbell River, British Columbia, in a wild and remote area of the Pacific Northwest known as Knight Inlet. Being one of the largest fjords on the British Columbia coast, Knight Inlet offers its visitors spectacular scenery amidst steep cliffs that fall away to the deep blues and grays of the glacial-fed water. Silence reigns here, broken only by the slap of the water against the shore and the thunder of nearby waterfalls, intermingled with the cries of many seabirds. The floating lodge is tucked into Glendale Cove, which offers one of the few protected anchorages in the inlet, and it is here that you will begin each day’s adventure.
Transfer from Knight Inlet to Campbell River and make your way to the ferry and on to Whistler for overnight room only accommodation at Westin Resort & Spa close to the vibrant Whistler Village.
