Very enjoyable kayaking trip. Our guide was Phin(apologies if I misspelled your name) and he was easy going. He knew some hangouts for seals and showed them to us. We were quite pleased with our tour. Thank you and we hope to return.

Disorganized shop with good guide

The shop location is really convenient, just steps off from the ferry dock in Snug Cove. They rent kayaks and SUPs there, and will also drive you and your boat to the other side of Bowen Island to Tunstall Bay. But there are no boat...More

Fantastic and customer service top notch

Great place to grab a kayak and the staff are very friendly, we booked to go a second time but sadly could not make it and they were very understanding and helpful to rebook. Needless to say we will be back.

Strange and disappointing experience

Called to book a double kayak for an overnight trip. Was told that there were plenty available, gave credit card info and was told that the confirmation would come by email. Instead of confirmation I got a letter informing me that no kayaks were available...More

Gorod2018, Sorry for your experience. Our online booking system is generally pretty accurate and usually a good place to go to reserve a boat. When you called one of our staff who does not normally handle bookings did say boats were available on Saturday (they...More

Great folks, great service, and lots of fun

This place is definitely worth it! We're a bit of a difficult couple for kayaking -- I'm experienced but my partner is a giant and not very confident on his own in a boat. The staff helped sort out a boat he could (mostly) fit...More
