Treat yourself to 3 days of fantastic paddling as we explore the coastlines of Link, DeCourcy and Valdes Islands. This is a perfect introduction for those of you who want to have a �taste� of multi-day sea kayaking before committing to a longer expedition or a west coast adventure. Our trip embarks and ends from Cedar-by-the-Sea, just south of Nanaimo and includes camping accommodation, delicious meals and snacks, professional and experienced guides, and equipment. Join us for a relaxing adventure while we explore the many splendid islets of the Northern Gulf Islands.

The Gulf Islands are one of BC's most popular kayak destinations. Bald eagles, cormorants and harbour seals thrive in these islands. The sculptured sandstone cliffs of the shorelines show off the colourful wildflowers. Their shelves and crevices are home to many nesting birds, including cliff swallows, pigeon guillemots, and peregrine falcons. The gnarled Garry Oak, Douglas Fir and the twisted Arbutus trees create picturesque rolling meadows, one of the rarest ecosystems in the world.

Explore the intertidal zone and enjoy the sensation of viewing the shorelines up close and personal - in a kayak.
