Meet the WIC Team

Tyra Bain

Tyra is a marine biologist and educator with an undergraduate degree in biology from the University of Victoria. After serving in multiple seasonal roles at The Whale Interpretive Centre starting in 2021, she transitioned to Manager in 2025.

Tyra enjoys sharing her passion for marine mammals and conservation with guests. She has been fortunate to work for various marine research and conservation groups in both Canada and abroad and enjoys bringing these experiences into her education work.

With the rebuilding underway, Tyra is looking forward to seeing the WIC reestablished as a cornerstone for marine education and conservation.
