About Prince Rupert

Prince Rupert is situated on Kaien Island, just off the North Coast of British Columbia. It is Canada’s most northern port on the West Coast and is the southern terminus for the Alaska Ferry.

Our growing city is located on traditional Tsimshian First Nations territory and has close ties to its cultural background. Enjoy the art and artifacts of our First Nations ancestors in local museums and art galleries. Numerous beautiful and storied totem poles can be found throughout the city.

Go whale watching or bear watching to see some of the most amazing wildlife up close, or get active and take a kayaking or hiking tour. Our staff will be pleased to help you book a sport fishing charter with one of the many reputable tour operators in town.
