Our Local Experts say:

An aquarium, zoo or animal sanctuary is an amazing place to visit, learn about and see wonderful animals not only native from British Columbia but from around the world from butterflies to big cats, beluga whales to otters.

Children and adults can learn about animal habitation, feeding habits and interesting facts in interactive shows for everyone. Shows are perfect as they provide the opportunity for people to ask questions regarding the animals. To learn more about the west coast's wildlife consider a Sea Safaris and Marine Tour.
