This is Canada like you've never experienced before - a place where
eagles, bears and whales far outnumber people. A relaxing corner
of the world where being friendly and out-going is just the natural
way to be.
The northern BC coast is a pristine wilderness with rich and productive
fishing grounds and spectacular scenery. Remote sandy beaches, abandoned
canneries and villages, fishing, golfing, whale watching and city
tours are just some of the attractions we have in Prince Rupert,
British Columbia, Canada.
 |
WILDLIFE VIEWING & WHALE WATCHING |
Given the vast wilderness and our distance from any major
population centres it is no wonder that the north coast has
some of the best bear and whale watching in North America.
In fact, the north coast is home to Canada's only Grizzly
bear sanctuary. |

CRUISE & SAILING |
Cruising up and down the coast in a motor or sailing yacht
or on board a small pocket-cruise ship is a great option to
the traditional Alaskan cruise. The scenery is exceptional,
the wildlife abundant, the waters uncrowded, the fishing first-class
and the isolated communities are friendly.
