Broken Group Islands ~ Sea Kayaking
Lodge Accommodation
5 days
The Broken Group Islands are a collection of picturesque islands located in Barkley Sound on the west coast of Vancouver Island, BC. This destination is known internationally for remarkable kayaking and wilderness camping, and is our most popular kayak destinations. Natural features of this tranquil group of islands include secluded lagoons, restful sandbars, thrilling blowholes and incredible arches. The calm, crystal clear waters are home to sea lions, river otters, porpoises, migrating grey whales and over 200 species of sea birds. The inter-tidal zones are also alive and vibrant with brilliant and fascinating sea life. There is also much evidence stating that the Broken Group was once a thriving home to thousands of First Nations as ancient native middens, village fortifications, stone traps and archaeological sites are scattered among the islands. Whether you’re fairly new to kayaking or a seasoned veteran, the Broken Group Islands have something for you to discover and enjoy.
