Fantastic - Fantastic experience. Sailing a zodiac alone is spectacular. Our guide Heather was very friendly and gave very clear explanations. She did everything she could to make it a fun trip. We have seen 2 humpback whales, a group of killer whales and porpoises. Definitely recommended!

Best captain and whale watching - Went on the zodiac Whale watching tour and had the best captain. Captain Cam, was very outgoing, and pleasant. He was very good at giving instructions, and full of helpful information! The best part is, I mentioned in the office that I love orcas. He took extra time and went father then usual on the tour, to make my dreams come true. :) Would highly recommend this tour and ask for Captain Cam!!! Thanks so much SpringTide and Captain Cam.

Unforgettable sunset zodiac boat tour - Fantastic experience! Cam was an amazing and knowledgable guide - props to him from “the Danish couple”👊. Coupled with amazing weather and encounters with humpbacks made for an unforgettable evening.

Once in a lifetime experience! - My husband, daughter and I had the most amazing time on the Sunset Zodiac tour with Springtide on Friday, Aug 30. We were provided with full length “life jacket” suits which kept us warm, safe and dry while we were on the water. I’d recommend still wearing layers and a hat as it does get chilly out there, especially once the sun goes down, and when moving fast. Captain Ian made the zodiac ride super fun while still keeping us safe and he provided lots of info when we stopped for viewings. The water was glassy calm and sunset on the water was absolutely spectacular. We were lucky enough to come across many seabirds, see a shimmering bait ball and be checked out by a pod of seal lions who came right up to our boat to see what we were doing. The highlight of our 3+ hour tour was finding ourselves amongst 5-6 humpbacks, hearing their exhalations and seeing them gracefully skim the surface feeding before before seeing the classic whale tale dives. Simply incredible!! Captain Ian did a fantastic job of making sure both sides of the boat got a front seat view and he was very patient ensuring we got all the time we could with these beautiful sea creatures. The highlight of our vacation for sure!

Awesome time to be out - The tour was wicked. Our group had a great time on the zodiac. The skipper Jasper was awesome and made sure we saw as much as possible. Beaty way to arrive back to Victoria at sunset.
