Park Permits Long Beach Nature Tours holds commercial park use permits for all the Provincial and National Parks that we operate within. In order to achieve these permits, LBNT must first apply to the appropriate department. The application will then be reviewed by BC Parks/Parks Canada in consultation with the local First Nations community and award entry to the park for commercial purposes, if agreed to by both parties.  Every tour that is operated within a Provincial or National Park will have a Park Permit fee added to the tour rate. This fee is different for every Park we visit and the dollar value is determined by the governing agency. This fee is collected and paid annually by Long Beach Nature Tours.

Fuel Surcharge For any tours involving boat transportation, a Fuel Surcharge will be applied. Since our rates are typically established well in advance, predicting fuel costs throughout the operating season is challenging. It's not uncommon for fuel prices to double overnight, especially during the summer months, making operations considerably more expensive for us. The Fuel Surcharge is a fee collected to address the ongoing and unpredictable fluctuations in fuel costs.
