We went out on West Coast Aquatic's first whale watching expedition of the season, and it was an incredible experience! The office staff was super friendly and efficient, and set us up with everything we might need for the trip, including a life jacket for our young son, rain gear, and for a small rental fee even binoculars! The office... more

I went whale watching with these guys and had such a memorable time, firstly Tofino is a stunning place and to get to see it by boat is the best way and secondly we got to see a group of Orcas, it was serene.

It was... more

They sent an email confirmation confirming the tour and the grand total amount to be paid at the day of the tour. Called for details regarding the tour and they said they had to book our tour with their sister company, Ocean... more

My spouse and I booked a tour with West Coast Aquatic Safaris online, as they advertise 10% discount when booking online. When I had called for details regarding the tour, which was not provided via email confirmation, they had told me that they had to book the tour with their sister company, Ocean Outfitters, because they could not provide the... more
