add to outlook add to google calendar remind me

Monday, August 29th, 2016
Daily: June 1 - Sept 15 | 3 Hours: 2:00PM - 5:00PM

Paddle out of our Saturna Sea Kayaking Outpost at Boot Cove, on beautiful Saturna Island, to the King Islets, home to rare wild flowers and plants. These Islets are very dry and one of the only places in Canada that are home to the native ‘Prickly Pear’ cactus. We paddle further to Minx Reef, a very popular haul-out for Harbour Seals. Don’t be surprised if a seal comes up right next to your kayak! Next, we will stop at Veruna Bay, a lovely, west-facing, sandy beach, where swimming is a popular activity. If you wish to swim, bring a bathing suit and towel along. After a quick rest and snack (or swim), we will paddle back to Boot Cove.

Tours are weather dependent and we may offer an alternate tour if the wind is too strong.
