Telegraph Cove Kayak Tour
Options
We'll meet at the indicated time at Telegraph Cove harbor and embark on an exciting kayak tour along the north coast of Vancouver Island.
Below, you can see the details of each tour option.
2-hour tour
This tour is ideal for discovering the small islands and coves around Telegraph Cove.
As we paddle through this area of British Columbia, we'll try to spot various wildlife native to Vancouver Island. Among the main animals that inhabit the ecosystems of this area of Canada are bald eagles and seals.
Along the route, we'll paddle through the Johnstone Strait, the narrow arm of the Pacific Ocean that separates the coastline of Vancouver Island from the mainland shores of British Columbia. Be sure to admire the lush forests that surround the area!
Finally, we'll conclude this 2-hour kayak tour by returning to the starting dock.
2-hour sunset tour
On this tour, we'll paddle under the sunset light through the Johnstone Strait, which separates the coastline of the island from the mainland coasts of British Columbia. This area of southwestern Canada is characterized by its great biodiversity, so if conditions are favorable we may see sea lions, dolphins and even orcas.
In addition to marine wildlife, the kayak tour will also take us past lush forests along the northern coastline of Vancouver Island. If the day is clear, we'll glimpse the mountain ranges located in this area of British Columbia in the distance.
Throughout the journey under the sunset, we'll also discover a lot of curiosities about the fauna and flora of southwestern Canada. Did you know that over a hundred animal and plant species inhabit the ecosystems of this area? Thanks to the climatic conditions, biodiversity can thrive in this ecosystem.
Finally, after a 2-hour tour, we'll conclude the kayak tour by returning to the meeting point.
6-hour tour
With this tour, we'll follow the same route as the 2-hour tour, to continue kayaking through the Johnstone Strait as we marvel at the rugged mountains surrounding us.
Then, we'll pause for a short break at a local beach so you can recharge your batteries - don't forget to bring your own picnic! After lunch, we'll soak up some time on the sandy beach and start the return trip.
On the way back we'll see marine species like sea urchins and starfish from the kayak, and different kinds of crabs and other crustaceans.
Then, we'll return to Telegraph Cove after a thrilling 6 hours of kaayking.
