Are there whale watching tours on PEI and if so where?

Answer by:

Hello Rita,

Thank you for your question to Ask an Islander.

If you check with the deep-sea & sports fishing tours, several offer whale watching. I like to point out the deep-sea fishing take you where the fish are, the whales are also where the fish are, so you get to catch fish and possibly see whales! There are about a dozen different types of whales in the Maritime waters. Most in the PEI waters are minke, humpback, fin and pilot whales.

Happy vacation planning,

Erin Davis
