This secluded inlet, only five miles long, is the only true example of fjordland on the Pacific Coast. Mile-high cliffs rise from placid waters with dozens of waterfalls.

On this rarely visited collection of islands and islets with protected bays and thriving marine wildlife, you’ll discover a kayaking paradise here, sometimes called “The Raggeds.”

Home to a rare cedar swamp, old-growth trees, and the world’s tallest totem pole, a highlight here is the rare collection of cultural treasures, including masks, shields, and dance regalia. 

Day 6: Cortes Island

The long, narrow inlet at the northwestern tip of Cortes Island is home to an undeveloped marine wilderness, a joint venture between the Klahoose First Nation band and BC Parks. Coast-Salish people call the old-growth forest “Ha’thayim.”

Day 7: Desolation Sound

A perfect environment for kayaking and Zodiac exploration, these calm waters offer spectacular vistas as you explore the islands and coves that make up this unique shoreline.
