Flavors of the sea, the sky, and the sound inspire the resort's modern natural cuisine.
	Fresh local seafood and produce are highlights of an ever changing, critically acclaimed menu.
Our renowned Chef prepares all meals served in our relaxing dining room or - a private candlelit table for two can be arranged.
Picnic lunches and dinners can be prepared for meals on the go or intimate excursions.

Activities - Clayoquot Wilderness Resorts

Anything goes in this luxurious wilderness playground. Expert or beginner, young or old, the possibilities for adventure are limited by imagination alone.
	Swimming, sailing, kayaking, rowboating, canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, beaching, picnicking, biking, water skiing, surfing, scuba diving, whale watching, and cocktails on-deck are favourite pastimes.


	Daytreks to the ancient rainforests and steamy thermal pools of Hot Springs Cove are celebrated year-round. Evening brings percussive quiet, and indoor games at fireside.
Designated a Biosphere Reserve Area, Clayoquot Sound is a nature lover�s paradise. Black bears, cougars, deer, elk, eagles, orcas, humpback and grey whales, seals, and many other wild marine creatures make the Sound their home.
No other resort in the world offers our unique range of Equestrian adventures.
In addition to an extraordinary range of day and night treks, our remarkable ex-U.S. Navy LCM-6 landing craft, "Hu Tla Pi" or "Ocean Spirit", ferries up to a dozen horses and riders to remote locations throughout the Sound.
Secluded beaches, deserted islands, and hundreds of miles of abandoned logging roads are now within reach of our guests.
	Explore out vintage 1907 tug "Ivan Ho" at sea level by kayak or canoe, or sail about the bay in our "windrunner" sea kayak with sails.
On horseback, mountain bike, by sea, or on foot - create your adventure of a lifetime. You dream it - we make it happen
