The Whale-Safe Boating course was created to address a critical need: protecting both marine mammals and boaters—whether you're on a motorized or non-motorized vessel. WhaleSafeBoating.org.

This National Drowning Prevention Week (July 20–26), let’s choose care over convenience: stay within arm’s reach, keep phones away, wear lifejackets even in calm water. Because when we stay alert, we keep each other safe. #SaferTogether tc.canada.ca/en/tc-stories/…

šŸ½ļø Dock. Dine. Repeat. There’s nothing better than pulling up to a waterfront patio after a day on the water. Top picks in BC: Pajo’s in Steveston, Cowichan Bay’s Masthead, or Gibsons Landing. Where’s your go-to dockside meal?

šŸŒ§ļø WIND WARNING? Don’t risk it. Always check the marine forecast before you leave the dock. BC waters can change fast—especially on the coast. Stay ahead of the weather with @MarineWeatherBC and the Windy app!

🚨 Did you know? BC’s coastal waters average 10°C—even in summer! Cold water shock can be deadly. Always wear your PFD and never assume you’ll have time to grab it in an emergency.

šŸ‹ Spotting marine life is magical—but keep your distance. In BC, it’s the law to stay at least 400m away from orcas and reduce speed in marine mammal zones. Let’s boat responsibly and protect our ocean neighbours.
