About

Capt. Mark’s is Pleasant Bay’s most experienced whale watching company. Operating for 30+ years, Capt. Mark and his crew take you along Cape Breton’s pristine coastlines in search of whales like Pilot, Minke, Finback and Humpback. In addition, you may also see seals, moose, bears, bald eagles and various sea birds. The scenery on its own is breathtaking. The spectacular rock and cliff formations, mysterious sea caves, waterfalls, abandoned cove settlements and colourful fishermen just make it more so!
