Tourism on the north end tip of Vancouver Island is alive and well. A popular outdoor recreational destination with wildlife tours number one. North Vancouver Island is not only known for the best whale watching in British Columbia, Canada but also great trophy fishing for salmon, halibut and much more. Bear viewing tours to nearby inlets where bears feast on spawning salmon at the rivers mouths are also popular activities.
