Wildlife Viewing

The Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary offers incredible opportunities to view grizzly bears in their natural habitat. Situated in the Great Bear Rainforest, the Khutzeymateen is Canada’s first Grizzly Bear sanctuary and is home to one of the highest concentrations of grizzly bears in the country. Grizzly and black bears can also be seen in many of the rivers and estuaries outside the sanctuary and even near the lodge. This area is also home to the elusive kermode, or spirit bear.

A short jaunt to the coast allows guests to go whale watching for humpbacks and orcas. Prince Rupert is one of North America’s most reliable locations to see them. You may spot grey whales feeding in kelp beds, or white-sided dolphins and porpoises playfully gliding alongside the boat. Steller sea lions are common on the rocky islets and bald eagles perch on cedars along the shoreline.
