There is an abundance of wildlife on Vancouver Island. From the majestic bald eagles that soar overhead, to the tiny hummingbirds that flit around the flowers, there is always something to see. And with over half of the island being designated as parkland, there are plenty of opportunities to get up close and personal with the local wildlife.
One of the best places to see wildlife on Vancouver Island is at the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve. This sprawling park is home to black bears, cougars, deer, elk, and a variety of bird species. There are also several whale-watching operators in the nearby town of Tofino, where you can often see orcas, humpback whales, and sea lions frolicking in the waves.
Whether you’re looking for a chance to spot some rare and elusive creatures or just want to enjoy the island’s natural beauty, Vancouver Island is sure to please.
