Hi! Can any one help with info about paddling at Vancouver island?
We shall be on holiday on Vancouver Island late May to mid July and would
like to do some Sea Kayaking.  We should be most grateful for any
information on hiring sea kayaks on Vancouver Island and ofcourse any info
on conditions and opportunities.
Pam and Derek Wakeling

Hi Derek,

Vancouver Island is a big place! Second largest island in the world.
Do you want open coast paddling on the west coast or more protected
on the east coast?

My wife and I have made several mellow trips in the Gulf Islands.  We rented
at Ocean River Sports outlet in Sidney and several times out of Saltspring
Island.  There are numerous 3 to 5 day trips you can do right from the
rental place.  No need to car top.  This is not wilderness.  You camp at
Marine Parks.  Very pleasant.  Poor fishing.
