Campania Sound and Whale Channel are good areas for viewing humpback whales. Along the fjords there is the opportunity to see spectacular humpback behaviours such as breaching and a cooperative feeding technique called ‘bubble-net feeding’). This area also has a very rich and varied bird population. You’ll be amazed at the number of bald eagles, ravens and various species of gulls that gather at the estuaries to feed on the spawning salmon. A variety of other birds, such as the common merganser, black oystercatcher, American dipper, and Steller jays are also common visitors of the rainforest rivers. During the cruise there are excellent chances of seeing the magnificent grizzly bear. Weighing in at more than a quarter of a ton, grizzly bears sit at the top of the food chain and are a critical part of this coastal ecosystem. They are drawn to the estuaries of large coastal rivers to feast on the salmon moving upriver to spawn and they depend on these salmon to survive.  Read more about Great Bear Rainforest
