Fisherman's Wharf is a quirky waterfront community is home to a collection of colourful floating homes, outdoor eateries and ecotourism operators. The latter include Eagle Wing Tours (whale watching) and Kelp Reef Adventures.
My top choice for food is Barb's Fish & Chips, which has been operating for more than 40 years!
If you can, consider walking here from the main harbour area. There is parking but the closest lot has a per hour charge and the surrounding streets are two hours maximum (fine for a quick visit but not for tours).
