THE 2023 WINTER TOUR SEASON HAS COME TO AN END

A Special Winter Tour.

Winter Explorer Tours are extra special. They are arguably the most scenic tours we do all year – picture being surrounded by snow capped mountains as you paddle!

During this relaxing guided paddle, you will explore Deep Cove and the southern part of the Say Nuth Khaw Yum / Indian Arm, learn about local history and relish the beauty of our surrounding mountains. Nestled in our fjord, you will find harbour seals, eagles, sea stars and other wildlife in a rich marine environment.
