Western Prince Whale Watching & Wildlife Tours Adventure
awaits you in the beautiful San Juan Islands. Join Western Prince
Whale & Wildlife Tours as we explore protected waters of the
Salish Sea and discover the islands' abundant wildlife and spectacular
beauty. Our skilled naturalists enjoy sharing their experience and
knowledge of the marine life that makes these islands their home.
The 46'
"Western Prince" twin-diesel custom tour vessel is large
enough for safety and comfort, yet small enough for a more interactive
trip with the crew, the wildlife and other guests. Your afternoon
on the Western Prince will be comfortable regardless of weather.
The main seating area is covered, has upholstered seating and may
be enclosed if the weather dictates. It has a "warm up"
cabin with snacks and beverages available and full walk-around viewing
decks with a spacious forward deck, a favorite with photographers.
This year we will be powering the Western Prince II
exclusively with B20, a 20% blend of Biodiesel and Petroleum Diesel.
Although the cost for Biodiesel is significantly higher, we feel
that it is our duty to help protect the magnificent environment
we operate in. We are happy to be a leader in adopting the use of
this alternative fuel. Access to our tour is fast and easy with
no extra island transportation needed. Our office is next to the
ferry landing for fast check in. Our vessel is a 5 minute walk and
is located on the same dock as where the seaplanes land.
Western Prince
was the first island company to share the wonder of orca whales
with the public in 1986 and has continued to maintain the highest
quality viewing experience with over 2500 tours to date. We have
dedicated years to observing and understanding marine life here
and the entire staff enjoys sharing this with you. Our company operates
on a smaller scale so we can provide a superior tour while still
showing our utmost respect for the wildlife we see. Our company
prides itself in always observing whale-watching guidelines. Join
us soon so you can experience a comfortable cruise your entire family
can enjoy.
