Description
There are a few locations in southern British Columbia were bald eagles congregate during the salmon run. The eagles coming down from the colder northern parts of the country to take advantage of the warmer weather and open rivers. The yearly salmon run provides plenty of food for them. And therefore literally thousands of bald eagles can be found in the air and along certain river shorelines. That provides world class wildlife watching and photo opportunities for photographers and spectators alike.
Whether you are a photographer or just want to watch this natural wonder in person. I will bring you up close to it. The peak season for bald eagle watching is usually from November to January. I’ll drive with you into the beautiful Fraser Valley. We’ll have several stops along the way to check out, where you can take wildlife and landscape pictures or simply watch and enjoy nature. You’ll love the the scenic landscapes along the beautiful road trip.
I do know a few spots, off the beaten path, which will bring us to scenic locations where usually no tourist goes. Book this full day – road trip adventure which leaves you with spectacular photos and a long lasting memory.
Full itinerary:
- We’ll be starting the day early in the morning at 8:00am at the Coquitlam Skytrain station (link to map) in Coquitlam. You can book a convenient pickup from your accommodation within the Tri-Cities (Coquitlam-Port Moody-Port Coquitlam), Vancouver, North Vancouver or West Vancouver for an additional pick-up fee.
- I’ll be using my off-road capable midsize truck (2023 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X – up to 3 guests) and I’ll have cold drinks (pops and water) as well as some fruits and sweet and salty snacks on board. Included in the tour price.
- Well be driving along the scenic highway 7 towards Hope.
- I’ll stop along the way giving you the chance to enjoy and taking pictures of the breathtakingly beautiful views.
- One (optional!) stop could be at the impressive Cascade Falls. A beautiful waterfall only a 10 minute hike from the parking lot.
- During the tour, depending on what your priorities are, I’ll be driving you to some nice vantage points from where you will have the best views. And we’ll certainly stop at a Tim Hortons to get coffee and donuts if you want.
- The goal is to get close to Bald Eagles. Bald Eagles are here year round but sometimes it certainly can be a challenge to find them and get close. But I know a few locations…
- On our way back, we can take advantage of the soft photo light during sunset and take a few more pictures, or just enjoying our ride home.
- The tour ends at about 6pm at the same location where it startet, at the Coquitlam Skytrain station. Or Ill drop you off at the same address I picked you up at in the morning.
- I will be taking pictures all day long and share with you a link to an online album, usually the next day. Those pictures will be a nice memory of your very unique and unforgettable road trip in “Beautiful British Columbia”
