This place is absolutely amazing. We had heard about the sanctuary and spontaneously decided to visit when on Vancouver Island - and I'm glad we did, it was such an informative and touching experience. It's admirable what staff at the sanctuary are doing in order to help injured birds and other animals - so inspiring! And at the same time visitors can learn about these animals and their behaviour and their needs.
We visited in the morning and it was rather quiet, around noon more visitors arrived.
Definitely worth a visit!
Thank you for such an amazing review! We are so happy that you enjoyed your visit here at NIWRA and hope to welcome you again in the future. Cheers, Eden
Great place to visit - the layout is good and the staff very informative and engaging.
Loved reading about what some of the animals are there and where/how they were rescued.
Thank you for such a wonderful review! We are happy that you enjoyed your visit and hope to see you again soon. Cheers, Eden
There were so many fun little nuggets to find hidden among the walkways and gardens. They also pay homage to First Nations members that take care of the land and animals. I loved seeing the animals being rehabilitated and reading about how they arrived at the Centre and their recovery process.
Thank you for the wonderful review. I'm happy to hear that you had a great visit. Cheers, Eden
Informative centre doing great work for injured animals!
Incredible to see how big some birds are up close!
Well worth a visit for a couple of hours!
Thank you for the wonderful review and rating! Much appreciated! Cheers, Eden
This place was a hidden gem! We stumbled across it and decided to visit on a whim, and it ended up being one of the best places we saw. The rescue is doing some great work and highlighting the animals, explaining why certain ones are off-limits and why others are there (unable to be released). The animals were easy to see and clearly well cared for, and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the incredible review! We are so happy that you found us. We hope you can come again soon! Cheers, Eden
Beautiful concept, well executed! This wildlife recovery center is informative, friendly, clean and inspiring. Each animal has a name and their story (how they came to the center and why they have not been released) is posted as well as information about their species. Eagles, bear, owls, turtles and more, this is a pleasant visit for friends of all ages.
Thank you for the incredible review! We are so happy that you enjoyed your time here. Cheers, Eden
