Please do not book flights based on information listed in this document as changes are possible. You will be provided with an Arrivals and Departures Itinerary once all details have been confirmed.

Hikers will delight in the many trails to be traversed on Gambier and Anvil Islands, while the truly adventurous can snorkel above the shipwrecks at BC’s first underwater marine park at Porteau Cove. Other highlights may include kayaking amidst the Pasley Islands and venturing out into the Strait of Georgia in search of humpback whales. This beautiful region lies within the traditional territories of the Squamish and Sheshalh nations. People with an interest in natural history will thoroughly enjoy this trip. Each voyage is accompanied by an experienced naturalist who will give talks, slide shows, and lead shore excursions. With the help of interested participants we plan to keep a list of the animals and plants we sight each day. We do daily shore excursions in our inflatable zodiacs, as well as hikes on the various islands that suit the abilities and interests of your group.
