This website provides information about humpback whales photo-identified in Clayoquot Sound, Vancouver Island, British Columbia from 1995 to present.

We published a humpback fluke ID catalog (left) in 2008 and the ID pictures and sighting details are available online here.

This website is a living archive and we invite anyone observing humpback whales in Clayoquot Sound to submit their sightings.

If you match a whale in the catalog, we will update the whale's record. If you photograph a new whale, we will add it to the catalog. All data and photographs will be credited appropriately. We are also interested in hearing about matches of Clayoquot whales in other regions.
