”West Coast Aquatic Safaris were the only company that had big enough boats, experienced enough crew and safe enough operations for us to take out our 2-year-old and 5-months-old children.

”A fabulous day with the Grizzly Bears! It was such a thrill to be really close to a beautiful grizzly and her cubs, but we felt very safe and well looked after. Congratulations to the staff for their knowledge and concern for the bears and their clients. A day I will always treasure.

”Great experience with Captain Jackie! She found Gray Whales, Sea Lions and lots and lots of Otters. It’s obvious she loves where she lives and what she does.
