WILDLIFE

EXPERIENCES

Canada is home to some of the most
extraordinary wildlife you’ll find anywhere in
the world.
Spot Grizzly and Black bears in the Canadian
Rockies or near the estuaries and inlets
off Vancouver Island. Go in search of the
Kermode bear, also known as the Spirit bear,
an experience not to be missed.
In the waters off Vancouver, see whales,
as well as other playful marine life including
Sea otters, seals and Sea lions. These are
just some of the amazing animals you
may encounter.
Stay at a lodge, perfectly positioned for wildlife
viewing or take a group tour. Be guided by the
experts who know the best time and place for
viewing opportunities.
