explore the fjord sup tour

A 12 km leisurely paddleboard tour along the spectacular Finlayson Arm fjord, replete with soaring eagles, curious seals, mist-shrouded vistas and the camaraderie of like-minded adventurers.

​

The daylong paddle sets off in the morning in Brentwood Bay. Skillfully timing Brentwood Bay tides and water level, we make our way around Squally Reach, into  the Finlayson Arm fjord. We spend the day paddling mindfully through the glacial carved fjord, cedars towering above us, deep clear waters below. This scenery is what British Columbia is known for!

 

Our pace will be relaxed with breaks for lunch, swimming and photos ops. We don’t want to rush the beauty and tranquillity of this unique experience. It will make you feel worlds away from the bustle of Victoria.
