Location & What's Nearby

On Swindle Island within the Great Bear Rainforest. No road access – guests fly to Bella Bella, then transfer by boat (around 90 minutes). Excursions head to Princess Royal Island's shores in search of spirit bears, grizzlies and whales.

Why We Recommend It

We recommend it to travellers wanting more than a wildlife safari – an authentic, Indigenous-led encounter with real cultural depth, in an intimate, small-scale setting.
