An ever increasingly popular vacation destination, Northern Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada is number one in tourism.

The Whale watching boat the Gikumi from Telegraph Cove has been operating whale watching tours on Northern Vancouver Island since 1980. Tourism on the northern tip of Vancouver Island is gaining momentum with operators of fishing charters, bear watching, and new accommodations opening up in the area. Tourists to the area can choose between a variety of Northern Island communities such as Port Alice, Sayward, Zeballos, Telegraph Cove, Alert Bay, and Sointula just to name a few. No matter where visitors choose to spend their vacation, each community has the means to make it a rewarding experience.
