The Sunshine Coast

One of British Columbia's best-kept secrets, this Pacific paradise is made up of quaint coastal communities. Outdoor enthusiasts and art fans flock to the coast for its unique galleries, trails, and shops. Visit Sechelt for a jazz, wooden boat, or apple festival. Cruise to Pender Harbour, affectionately called "the Venice of the North." As you discover this region, it's your choice: busy marinas, markets, and restaurants on the water, or forest walks, secret coves, and bays.

Jervis & Princess Louisa Inlet

Jervis Inlet cuts deep into the coastline and the mountains just off the Sechelt Peninsula. The waters are calm, surrounded by beautiful snow-capped mountains. This granite-walled gorge guides you to the breathtaking Princess Louisa Inlet and famous Chatterbox Falls. The lifestyle here is laid-back, informal, and friendly.

Desolation Sound

Internationally renowned as a premier cruising destination, Desolation Sound, at the confluence of Malaspina Inlet and Homfray Channel, features more than 60 km of shoreline, several islands, small bays, and snug coves. The warm waters are ideal for swimming, scuba diving, and kayaking. Wildlife includes whales, sea lions, otters, porpoises, and dolphins. Bring your appetite for amazing seafood, including oysters, clams, prawns, and salmon.

Discovery Islands

The Discovery Islands are adjacent to Desolation Sound. Here, there are many scenic anchorages and unique small towns such as Squirrel Cove on Cortes Island. This grouping of islands also includes East and West Redonda Islands. They are incredibly pristine, natural environments that have the warmest salt water north of Mexico.

Northern Gulf Islands

This chain of islands includes Hornby, Denman, Texada, and Lasqueti. This region is more remote and peaceful than the Southern Gulf. Here you will find secluded marine parks, beautiful beaches, and abundant wildlife.

Southern Gulf Islands

Known by boaters for their calm waters and incredible scenery, this is a popular destination. Visit Salt Spring Island and Ganges Harbour, known for their excellent restaurants and local markets. Or cruise to Silva Bay on Gabriola Island to enjoy an evening at the local pub. Stop by Bedwell Harbour on Pender Island with its many peaceful anchorages and the popular Poets Cove Marina.

San Juan Islands

Just across the border to Washington State, these islands offer numerous harbours and resorts. Here, there are an abundance of quaint towns, craft and outdoor markets, art galleries, and ocean-viewing restaurants. Very popular is Friday Harbour on San Juan Island, which is always bustling.

Short Trips Around Vancouver and the Lower Mainland

Perhaps you are only visiting beautiful Vancouver for a few days and still want to see its incredible sights. Consider chartering a yacht and heading up to the beautiful Granite Falls in Indian Arm or cruising to Deep Cove. Travel around the beautiful Howe Sound or stop for a meal at Snug Cove on Bowen Island. Please search GAUK Boats for your perfect charter.
