Last night the star of the show was the sunset! We also enjoyed a rainbow, tons of jellyfish, clouds and stars, a great group of people and bioluminescence was great too! We love October at South Island SUP!

Bioluminescence is still going strong! Just a few more days this year to catch this favourite night time activity in Victoria. We had another great night on the water last night with visitors from Germany, UK and the Northwest Territories. Congrats to Izzy for capturing the photo of the year of the bioluminescent plankton. We have a few more dates in our calendar if you want to join us this year. Otherwise see you next year starting April 1, 2027. Lots of rain wildlife adventures over the winter months.

The days are shorter and the nights are darker. Join us this September and October for a bioluminescence experience like none other. In the words of many of our guests a “mind blowing experience”. Bioluminescence guaranteed. Jellyfish a bonus. Sometimes starry skies. And sometimes the northern lights! We hope to see you on the water soon! We do daytime tours too!

We love September at South Island SUP! At first a few distant humpback whales. Then a sea lion synchronized swimming show. Followed by a surprise humpback surfacing next to us. We offer this guided adventure a few times a week in September and early October whenever the wind cooperates. High probability of seeing humpbacks and/or orcas. 100% chance of having a great time. Join a group tour or book a private tour with us.

Yesterday was a whale of a day! Great to be out there! 17 km next level paddling. 4 hours of never ending excitement. Thanks Gina Lemieux and Vibes Fitness Oak Bay for the fun day! And thanks to Gina for being a whale whisperer! FYI the whale visited us. We were drifting in the current phone in hand on 5X optical zoom and further zoom in during editing. Great to be the only ones out there during our whale encounter (the whale visited after all the whale watching boats left the area). If you are out there in a powerboat pleasing travel at low speed. Whales can surface unexpectedly anytime. Destination Greater Victoria Attractions Victoria FRS Clipper | Seattle ↔ Victoria | Whale Watching Fairmont Empress Hotel Grand Pacific
