They are the largest of the sea lion family and weigh in at around 2000 lbs (900 kg)! 📸 Credit: @kiershambrook #northislandkayak #NIK #telegraphcove #seakayaking #kayakbc #gonorthisland #kayak #vancouverisland #explorevi #explorebclater #vancouverislandnorth #beautifulbc #sealions #stellersealion #johnstonestrait #broughtonarchipelago

Trying to decide where to go when restrictions ease? We highly recommend our neck of the woods. @telegraphcove 's historic board walk is a must see! (Insider tip, stop by their coffee shop prior to your stroll and get one of Vancouver islands best lattes from Leslie, the best Barista around) Follow the signs down the board walk to find our office shared with @princeofwhaleswhalewatching mask-up pop in and say hi! We'd love to discuss what animals we've been seeing, our current trip availabilities and answer any questions you might have about the area. Next stop right around the corner is the @killer_whale_centre where you can see a full whale skeleton! along with many other marine animals. Get some up to date info regarding the conservation of our Northern Resident Orcas or get a low down on what it's like to be a Humpback Whale who migrate to the area every year from Hawaii and Baja California! Hope to see you all when it's safe to travel and summer is in the air!

These giants arrive from Hawaii and Mexico in late May and stay to feed until October, some have even been recorded in BC waters all year round!! An increasing number of humpback whales have been returning since the whaling industry ultimately eradicated them from the area. Although whaling ended in BC in 1967, 35 years later there were only 7 Humpbacks documented in the Queen Charlotte and Johnstone Straits. In 2019 however, 95 individual humpback whales were documented feeding on the abundant krill and herring of the straits... they're back! 🎉 📸 Credit: @sharonwckay #northislandkayak #NIK #telegraphcove #seakayaking #kayakbc #gonorthisland #kayak #vancouverisland #explorevi #explorebclater #explorebc #humpbackcomeback
