Prince Rupert Zodiac Ecotour Excursion

Description
Experience the northern Great Bear Rainforest by water on this 3-hour zodiac-style boat tour from Cow Bay. Start by venturing into Metlakatla Pass to learn about the Indigenous history of the area that you can only see by boat. Then you'll embark 7km offshore to the Lucy Islands Conservancy to see one of the region's oldest lighthouses and protected Rhinoceros Auklet seabird population before travelling south to the Kinahan Islands. Capture the beauty of the Great Bear Rainforest by snapping up-close shots of local wildlife such as bald eagles, seals and sea lions. From your unique vantage points on the water, learn about the region's history and ecology from an informative guide. Finally on the way back into the Prince Rupert harbour, witness the working waterfront of Prince Rupert's industrial terminals which make up Canada's third largest port complex.
