The Whales Come Marching 4×4, Hoorah Hoorah!! 🎶 🎵 On Sunday afternoon we received a tip that the next wave of #humpbackwhale had finally begun moving into the strait! We have been fortunate enough to spend the last three days with a group of about 30 humpbacks feeding off of #sombriobeach . We are hoping this group is around for at least a few more days, before they begin to disperse into smaller groups throughout the strait. . . . #adventuresbyhip #adventuretourism #oceanadventure #pacificnorthwest #pnwbc #pnwonderland #whalewatching #humpbackwhales #baleenwhale #whales #marinelife #marinemammals #beautifulbc #sealife #vancouverisland #Sooke #britishcolumbiamagazine #beautifulbc #blueplanet #wildlifeplanet #animalplanet #natgeoyourshot #naturelovers #sharevi #explorethecoast #explorecanada #explorebc

  •   Hi Holly, Thanks so much for the excellent review! We truly did have a magical day on the water with you, and we are so happy to hear that... read more you enjoyed the tour so much as well. It is so great to hear the positive feedback regarding our approach to the whale watching industry. It can get crowded out there at times, but there are plenty of whales in the sea, and we are always happy to put the work in to find some animals to view in a civilized and relaxed atmosphere! We hope to see you back in Sooke. Cheers,

  •   My wife took us Sooke for my birthday and signed up for the HIP Whale Watching and Ocean Wildlife Adventures. This was definitely the highlight of our stay; it was... read more incredible being out on the ocean and seeing all the wildlife. Mike our skipper was very knowledgeable about all the wildlife and knew where to take us to get the best views and photos of the Whales, Seals, and Birds. Very quickly Mike found us some Whales to watch and photograph which was excellent, he then took us out in deeper water to find Orca’s which were stunning to see up close. On the way back we got to see the seal colony on a light house rock, there were small to huge seals basking on the rocks and in the water. On the last leg home we saw more whales and took additional pictures. I would highly recommend HIP for your Whale Watching and Wildlife. Sarah made the booking easy and was always quick to communicate and the added bonus was the pictures that Mike took while we were out with him. Sarah sent these out for free,a great bonus. More
