Ever seen a snail that large?

Not something you see everyday, but something you may experience on your trip with us

Here's a few Moon Snail fun facts: they are predators & eat a lot of clams & other shelled invertebrates. They rasp their way into their prey with a specialized tongue-like appendage covered in seven rows of specialized teeth called radula. Then, aided by enzymes & hydrochloric acid, they siphon the contents out of the shell

This guy clearly has something to say!

Steller Sea lions:
We love their varied personalities & viewing them is an exciting part of our expeditions

These hefty fellows are the largest of all sea lions. As carnivores, they rely on their strong swimming & diving skills (& strong jaws!) to catch a variety of fish and mollusks

Happily, their population in British Columbia has
more than doubled since the early 1970s, to between 13,400 and 18,800 animals, including 2,300 pups *

This truly is a great bear! We can see where the region gets its name

And it's where we travel as part of our Wilderness & Wildlife Great Bear Rainforest Safari

Our Rainforest Safari is the ultimate Canadian wilderness experience. Majestic granite cliffs tower over the inlets of the north coast. Journey through the Inside Passage into the highly biodiverse ecosystem that is the Great Bear Rainforest

Sometimes we get to see a Kermode bear like this, strolling around, perusing the water for a meal. It's unforgettable

Whoaaa indeed!
The amazing breaching of a humpback whale seen on one of our journeys. We always get excited when when they appear. This magnificent guy really gave us a great jump. We give him a perfect 10

Did you know a Humpback breach requires the whale to break through the water’s surface at its top speed of 28km/h? Incredible. Incredible creatures

It's pretty amazing to observe a bear going after his dinner. They are savvy fishers!

Last fall we had the privilege of seeing this guy in action on one of our Rainforest Safaris. These expeditions have their very own “Big Five” cast of characters: eagles, wolves, whales, sea lions & bears! Our mission? Try to spy all 5 within our 5 night trip

Seafood Sunday! Well, seafood any day is great when you're onboard with us

The rich ocean bounty we glide over every day on your voyage provides the freshest ingredients that our professional chefs, including the awesome @nfa.barter, transform into the amazing West Coast meals we are known for. Melding time-honoured cooking techniques & modern, Pacific Northwest-inspired influences, along with their own inspirations we ensure that meals are among the highlights of trips with us

Often our guest are involved in harvesting the ingredients for their meals from our local waters. Whether we stop at our private beach to gather an oyster or clam bounty, collect the crabs from our traps set the night before, fish for wild BC salmon off the tender or buy delicacies from the local farmers & producers we enjoy friendly relationships with along our routes, we utilize all ingredients as your meals are lovingly prepared in our open galley

We also work together with the Vancouver Aquarium to assure that all the seafood we serve on board the Pacific Yellowfin is Ocean Wise approved, thus sustainable & ocean-friendly
