About:
About Over the water shoreside quaint hotel in a beautiful and historic location. Wildlife and culture right on the doorstep. Story Originally constructed in the mid-1940s as a dry goods store, the building was located next to the Alert Bay salmon cannery, which was at the time was the largest on the British Columbia coast between Vancouver and Alaska.Today we have restored and renovated the old building to its present incarnation as a comfortable and cozy Inn. Set over the shore, the ocean surf laps right under your feet! We boast some of the most beautiful wildlife in all of north America with Orca that can be seen right on our doorstep. We have an array of dolphins, porpoise, whales, fish, sea lions and more, and that's just the ocean. We have a flourishing supply of bald eagles, hummingbirds, woodpeckers the list goes on. The trails on the island make fantastic walks or biking with no bears, wolves, cougars or dangerous animals you can enjoy your walk relaxed. All rooms at The Seine Boat Inn feature fine, detailed use of recycled and restored wood, molded with modern amenities, such as full or semi-kitchenettes and ensuite bathrooms. The rooms are named after a few of the many seine boats, for whom Alert Bay was home port. Cable tv, internet access and laundry services are all complimentary. We are proud of our indigenous culture. Alert Bay (Yalis) was originally discovered by Europeans in the early 1700s. They were welcomed here by our First Nations peoples, and it didn’t take long for settlers to realize a commercial value in the Island and surrounding areas. Alert Bay is one of the few multicultural communities in Canada where support for each other is strong. First Nations art is everywhere and the the people live in their culture with pride. Visit U'Mista Cultural Centre, Culture Shock, the Kwakwaka’waku Gallery downtown, or take a cultural tour with Sea Wolf Adventures. One of the islands most significant landmark is The worlds tallest Totem pole which can be found up by the Namgis Bighouse where all the famous Potlatch Ceremonies of the community are held. There are many different ways to access the Island ~ bring your own car, or rent one, travel by Greyhound bus or taxi to Port McNeill and the BC Ferry terminal. It isn't necessary to drive onto the Island as walking and biking are our favourite forms of transport. The ferry dock in Alert Bay is a three minute walk from the Seine Boat Inn. Although, if necessary, the BC Ferry that sails here 6 times per day from Port McNeill can accomodate 25+ cars per sailing. For instance, International Travellers, once arrived in Vancouver or Victoria, can either rent a car, or hop on a scheduled Greyhound bus to Port McNeill, or schedule a commuter flight to Port Hardy, and rent a car or taxi to Port McNeill, or reserve a Seaplane directly to Cormorant Island. The choice is up to you, depending on your need to explore. We hope to be welcoming you shortly.
