Drive by. Orcas are out and are curious. We always keep our distance from all whales, but sometime they want to say hi 👋
Can you guess what it is??
4-day tour
Last year, we were lucky enough to have Passage Media join a four-day tour and document the trip. Here's the video!

🎬 NEW VIDEO! Sound on 🔈
In September 2023, we were lucky to have Josiah Fennell, a local film maker, join our 4 day tour to capture some of the special moments. If you're considering joining one of our trips this summer, this is an excellent sneak preview of some of the things you might see. 🌲💦☀⚓ We're getting excited for summer 2024!
In case you weren't aware, we have a fondness for boats—particularly swift and agile ones that can whisk us across the waters of Haida Gwaii and into Gwaii Haanas.
Did you know that our Zodiac Hurricanes are incredible vessels that enable us to travel almost anywhere in Gwaii Haanas? They're incredibly reliable, stable, capable and efficient and are also the boat of choice for the Canadian Coast Guard, militaries worldwide and other emergency services so you can feel safe and secure while out in the ever-changing landscape of Haida Gwaii.

Kelp! I need somebody, Kelp! Not just anybody!
In this video, one of our Guides Julian shows us some bull kelp;
"This is an annual, grows every year. Starts as slices of free-floating form in the ocean finds the rock that it likes, that it wants to attach itself to, and then hooks onto the rock. It can grow up to 36 meters in length, so very, very tall. And when it's at its fastest growing stage, it can grow two to three feet a day!"
Come and learn more about the fascinating world that lives under the ocean on a boat tour with us. Our 2024 calendar is open for bookings, don't miss out on your preferred date. Questions? drop us a line and we're happy to help.

Meet the Lions of the Sea - The Stella Variety
Known for sitting on rocks and screaming at each other, these wonderful beasts are common on Haida Gwaii, despite being close to the threatened species list.
They are known to frequent Garson Rock, Cape St James and SG̱ang Gwaay. We also often spot them on Helmet Island through the winter months, and they can't resist a good scratch on the Skedans Islands in the spring!
Who do you want to relax in the sunshine with next summer? Perhaps not engaging in heated arguments, but definitely savouring the ocean breeze!

When the water of Haida Gwaii is a silky smooth mirror, it gives those 360 degree views. Our tours are now closed for the season, our team are now in rest mode and enjoying some well deserved time off. Thank you to all our guests, staff and partners who made this season so great. Haawa!
Sun, calm waters and whales - August in Haida Gwaii sure has been a treat for our guests and us. ☀️🐋🤩
Moresby Explorers Haida Gwaii boat tours
Warm sun & salty air. Our boat tours are now OPEN!
We love being back out on the water exploring Haida Gwaii and Gwaii Haanas and, as always, feel so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to operate on these waters.
We can’t wait to show you.
On all our boat tours, we travel on fast, stable Hurricane Zodiac boats, perfectly suited to the variable weather and sea conditions around Haida Gwaii. Our one-day tour travels around Louise Island, and our Two Day and Four Day tours provide an opportunity to travel deep into Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site (“Gwaii Haanas”). Overnight tours include accommodation at Rose Harbour and/or our Floating Lodge. All fees, meals and transportation are included.
Book online at moresbyexplorers.com, email us or give us a call. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have!
When you thought our float lodge couldn’t get any more magical… then it turned into a winter wonderland thanks to the recent snow on Haida Gwaii.
You can bet the boat ride out there was a little chilly! 🥶

This video of a whale feeding (and possibly bubble feeding) was taken at the northeastern mouth of the Houston Stewart Channel on one of our 4-day tours this past summer.
While we don't promise you wildlife sightings, this area is full of life, with lots of nutrient-rich upwelling of cold water coming from the west coast, so it is prevalent to see whales feeding in this area, and therefore we navigate in on all our 4-day tours.
As always, we followed all regulations, including distancing from all marine mammals, with the whale swimming up to the boat once we had stopped.
