Canoeing around Clayoquot Sound is a time-honoured tradition introduced by the
Nuu-Chah-Nulth First Nation.
Children especially love looking down into
the cool, clear shallows as fresh and salt water meet in the estuary.
Explore miles of coastline, replete with marine life like seals, otters,
marten, bear, eagles and puffins. Often, whales can be seen feeding in nearby
shallow bays.
A favourite daytrip is an eight-kilometre
paddle from Quait Bay to the Wilderness Outpost at
Bedwell River. Stop for lunch at a secluded beach and visit a floating artist
studio/organic garden along the way.
