TAILS FROM THE SEA
Whale watching season is officially on—live and virtually.
Besides the arrival of spring in Tofino, what’s most exciting about March is it's when we start celebrating majestic grey whales passing by our shores on their annual, round-trip, 20,000-kilometre commute from Mexico to Alaska.
