Located on the Hesquiat Penninsula north of Flores Island on Vancouver Island, Hot Springs Cove welcomes adventurous seafarers with the luxury of natural sulphur springs. Launching from the fishing village of Tofino on the west coast of Vancouver Island, we will enjoy six enchanting days of discovery as we paddle the inlets and waterways of magical Clayoquot Sound. Our path leads us through a timelessland of virgin Giant Cedar and Sitka Spruce rainforests, hidden lagoons teeming with brightly  coloured sea-life and miles and miles of deserted sand beaches. As well as seals, deer, otters, porpoises, wolves and eagles, a resident population of Grey whales inhabit the Sound from early Spring till Fall and chance encounters with these magnificent giants are an exhilarating and memorable experience. This expedition includes a boat transfer from the Hot Springs and our last night in luxury at the Vargas Island Inn on Vargas Island. We're only running one trip so book early as this expedition will fill up fast!

How to Get There...

 

"...from the moment we paddled away from Tofino, we knew we were in for a treat...our 6 days in majestic Clayoquot Sound will forever be one of the most special times in my life. Your ability to make a group of complete strangers feel welcome, safe, comfortable and into old friends within days was magic. Your culinary skills were outstanding...a fresh crab and swiss cheese omellette for breakfrast...with a mango fruit salad!...I thought camping was "roughing it"...to say you "blew us away" is an understatement! I want to be back on our timeless beach right now!

How could we not share our warm feelings about whales, friendships and hospitality...we had a wonderful time!"
