August 2025: New event series coming soon!

Dear WTA Community,

Summer is flying by and so is our momentum. Our Executive Director Cassandra Zerebeski (also TIABC’s Director of Policy) has hit the ground running on stakeholder outreach, advocacy priorities, and member engagement. The early focus is practical wins for operators and a stronger foundation for a sustainable, innovative wilderness tourism sector across BC.

We’re planning a short online event series over the coming months. What topics would help you most - workforce, insurance, access, permitting, stewardship tools, visitor education, marketing, or something else?

Share your ideas with Cassandra below!

Member Spotlight: Cruising BC’s Coast by Small Ship

Bluewater Adventures

Congratulations to Maple Leaf Adventures, Bluewater Adventures, Mothership Adventures, Outer Shores Expeditions, and former member Ocean Adventures Charter Co. who were featured by BCLiving as exceptional operators for exploring BC’s spectacular coastline.

Read the feature: “Cruising the Coast: Exploring British Columbia’s Coastal Gems by Small Ship”

The piece highlights each company’s distinct experiences, routes, and sustainability practices. We couldn’t agree more with the well-deserved recognition for leaders in responsible coastal travel.
