Day 1

Embark on a scenic 30-minute water taxi ride from Alder Bay at 12:30 pm, cruising through the stunning waters of Johnstone Strait and Blackfish Sound as you make your way to Farewell Harbour. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by our friendly staff at the dock - relax, you're here! 

After a light lunch and a brief welcome orientation, you'll have a chance to settle into your accommodations. Then it's time to set off on an exciting afternoon marine tour. You'll search for marine wildlife in the vibrant waters surrounding the lodge and return to the lodge by 4:30 pm, just in time to enjoy our '5 pm swim club'!

Your evening includes a delicious buffet dinner, a briefing on the next day's activities and a presentation by our knowledgeable guides on an aspect of the coastal environment they are passionate about. 

Day 2

After a delicious breakfast, meet on the dock for your full day bear viewing adventure to one of our prime viewing areas! Immerse yourself in the wild beauty of the Great Bear Rainforest as we explore the diverse ecosystems of these pristine shorelines and estuaries. Depending on the tide, you'll have the unique opportunity to observe these majestic creatures either from a vessel, small zodiac or on foot, providing a truly intimate and breathtaking experience. We return to the lodge by 4:30 pm. Join fellow travellers around our fire tables to share stories of the day before dinner. Sit on the deck to watch the setting sun or listen to an engaging evening presentation by one of our guides before returning to your cozy room for a peaceful night’s rest, ready for another day of adventure.  

Day 3

After a hearty breakfast, we’ll head out to explore the Great Bear Rainforest and Broughton Archipelago. Today is a chance to tailor your day to your interests by choosing from a variety of half or full day adventures and experiences. You can choose from a marine tour, bear ecology tour, coastal safari adventure, sea kayaking, rainforest hike, Indigenous cultural tour, stand up paddle boarding, or our 'Berry Balm' nature wellness experience. The adventure is up to you!
