Recommend this tour - Very mellow trip round the harbour in kayaks. Great to see the coastline from the water. Two lovely guides. Spotted a bald eagle.

A great relaxing morning - Enjoyed our time. Tal was fantastic to chat with about the harbour. Wish we had booked the group island tour though as I was really hoping to see more critters. Highly Recommend this business these guys were great!

Fantastic day kayaking trip around Ukee - We did a day kayaking tour to George Fraser Island with Hello Nature. Our guides Mick and Vince were wonderful - super knowledgeable about the area and they made sure the routes were best suited for our abilities. Equipment, lunch, gear - everything was top quality and extremely well planned out. We saw seals, bald eagles, jelly fish and deer along our tour. We had a fantastic time! Highly recommend Hello Nature to anyone planning to explore coastal BC.

Great guide. great value, and great views! - A wonderful outing with an expert guide who was full of local history. We got to see live animals along the whole route, including nesting and hunting eagles. The tour was extensive as well and we covered a lot of ground. Well worth it!

Wonderful family kayaking trip - My family and I (wife and two kids, 8 and 10), did the Ucluelet harbor kayaking in two double kayaks with Tal. He was wonderful and taught us all about kayaking, the ecosystem, and history of the area. Our kids thought he was great, as did we, and we loved the trip. It was absolutely beautiful, not too hard, and we saw bald eagles, king fishers, and herons. We would absolutely do the trip again (and try the longer Broken Islands tour next time)! Thank you!

Awesome morning exploring the Ucluelet Harbour by kayak - Awesome morning exploring the Ucluelet Harbour by kayak! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience than with Hello Nature - from the moment we set foot on the dock, we felt safe, comfortable, and ready to start paddling. I was with my mom who had never kayaked before, and she was quickly put at ease! Super impressed with all the gear that was provided to keep us dry and comfortable. Vince and Tal were excellent guides - we very much appreciated their knowledge and guidance. You could definitely tell they were passionate about the area, its environment, and its culture/history. Would definitely reccomend this tour to a friend!

It was a little underwhelming - We enjoyed the trip around the harbour but it was a little too slow and didn’t cover a great distance. We saw the head of a seal in the water and an eagle but nothing else We were a little underwhelmed Our guides were lovely though and the gear was good.
