Native History, Canoe Tours and Whale Viewing in the Gulf Islands

Our goal is to provide our guests with an unforgettable cultural experience through the eyes of our fully trained First Nation Staff. Tseycum Canoe Tours is owned and operated by the Tseycum First Nation of North Saanich. We welcome visitors to come and discover the rich cultural history of the Coast Salish people. We offer whale watching and cultural interpretive tours within the Gulf Islands and surrounding waters. Take a medicinal plant walk and learn about the traditional healing powers of the local flora and fauna. Paddle a big replica dug-out canoe or have a seat in a new whale watching boat while qualified First Nation guides tell legends, sing songs and explain the traditional ways of the Coast Salish people.


The Gulf Islands are situated on the beautiful Coast of British Columbia. This is truly one of the most breathtaking parts of the world. We offer a unique glimpse into the sacred past of the Coast Salish people. There is no better way to experience this natural paradise.
