Can someone tell me the tide reference points for Meares, Vargas, Flores
island in Clayoqout Sound, BC?  Thank you!


 Any suggestions of good b and b's in the area for first and last days?

Tofino and Riley Cove are the only CHS ones I have here.  Don't have a decent
chart for Clayoquot, and my travel map does not show Riley Cove.  However, its
Lat/Lon (49 degrees  23 min N; 126 degrees 13 min W) puts it on the northern
edge of where you want to paddle, I believe, some 15-20 nautical miles NNW of
Tofino.  The two stations show almost identical timings and heights for high
and low, so they are probably typical of the outer parts of Clayoquot Sound.

There is a NOAA station (Clayoquot) at the same Lat/Lon as Tofino, although it
shows very slightly different high and low values -- probably because of
differences in how they run their tide algorithm.

If you want, I can email you a tide table for the day(s) you plan to be there.

Hi Anne,

You may try the paddlers inn on top of Tofino Sea
Kayaking Co. Rooms start at $45 a night with shared
bathroom and a great breaky in the morning. Also, you
can launch from the beach in front of TSKC. I would
highly advise reservations as they are moving into their
busy season. I just got back from a three day paddle of
Vargas Isl. and ended up at the Inn rather than another
night in the tent at Green Point.

                                                    Cheers!

                                                    Bill Pierson
                                                    Bowen Island BC
