BC Ferries Coastal Naturalists

Parks Canada Vancouver and BC Ferries have a long history of working together, offering BC Ferries customers the opportunity to connect with the coastal B.C. region, sharing inspiring stories about the ocean, B.C.'s unique wildlife, marine life, and nautical and cultural history.

While the popular Coastal Naturalist Program is currently paused, we continue to collaborate on other initiatives which we invite you to check out the next time you’re on board.
