Hello. If you currently get the GROUPON deal for Victoria or if you don't you can go to their webiste groupon.com. There is a coupon available only today, April 15th for purchase for "Five Star Whale Watching" 3 hour tour. It is a 50% off coupon you can purchase. They are currently one of the best Whale Watching Tours in Victoria. There are no specific places along the coast anywhere on Vancouver Island that you can view whales. You have to go on one of the guided tours. Good Luck!

Check Google for whale watching tours in Vancouver. I know there are several different companies that operate out of, I think, West Vancouver and possibly the downtown area as well, near Stanley Park. Those orcas are there, you just need to be lucky enough to find them! ;)

Hey...have you booked your tour yet? Daily tours running out of Steveston with Seabreeze Adventures and Van Whale Watch. I've head the sightings have been great! Lots of sea lions and killer whales in the area. Seabreeze has a free shuttle that will pick you up from Vancouver.Hope this helps, enjoy your time in Vancouver..looks like spring is finally here!
