Island of the Sea Wolves

If you plan to visit Vancouver Island, don’t miss the new Netflix docuseries Island of the Sea Wolves. Wild rainforests, seas and rivers teaming with life, and some of the last standing old growth forests in the world – Vancouver looms large in this beautifully photographed, inspiring series that will be fun to watch over the holidays as you plan your upcoming charter or training.

Planning Your Visit

Wolves, black bear, baby otters, and spawning salmon come alive in this 3-episode docuseries about our beautiful island. It’s an inspiring introduction to whose who plan to visit and a familiar reminder to those of us who explore the B.C. Coast. Every year, we capture the beauty of our wild island residents as our guests and flotilla’s create custom journeys on this island of sea wolves.

This coming season, our Canadian fleet at Cooper Boating will embark on a series of learning Adventures – designed to bring together experienced local experts, seasoned skippers, and those who are new to the coast on flotillas, trainings, and other adventures where wild wonders await. Join us on the island of the sea wolves and take home a lifetime of memories.

We hope you enjoy this sneak peak at some of the wonders that await when you step aboard and set sail in B.C.. Photos taken while on adventures in our magnificent region.
