Any whale watching tour available in PEI?

Answer by:

Hello Jorge,

The best way to see whales is out on the water. There are many tours available to take you out, most visitors will take a deep-sea fishing charter. Fishing charters follow the fish and fortunately, if the whales are out swimming around, they tend to be following the fish as well. 

Prince Edward Island is home to the Minke, Right and Pilot whales. They tend to be a rare sighting, but when out with a charter, they will happily point them out.

Happy vacation planning,

Erin Davis
