Sea Kayaking Desolation Sound British Columbia

Kayaking Desolation Sound, British Columbia is a rewarding experience. The coast mountains rise abruptly from the ocean forming great peaks with steeply sloped sides that continue upward beyond the tree line.

Desolation Sound is a unique area of the Pacific North West in that it is home to the warmest waters at this latitude due to the flow and ebb of the ocean tides.

Our campsites are so perfect with such grand scenery that one may feel they have been created as a British Columbia Vacation fit for the gods. We visit fresh water lakes to swim, paddle placid waters and kayak trough small channels and islets.

"Desolation Sound has nothing in common with its name, and had Captain Vancouver not been in such a foul mood, with clear weather he might have named it Majestic Sound instead."
