バンクーバー島：テレグラフ・コーブ発1日カヤックツアー

We had a wonderful day with our guides Lily and Stella. The kayaking was easy, which was good for me since I am a beginner. Our guides were terrific. Both of them had a vast knowledge of plant and animal life. Stella carries her guidebook with her own beautiful drawings of plants and animals surrounded by interesting facts about each item. She shared it with us at lunch. Lily has a real passion about marine life and even made a horn for us from bull kelp, which she played for us. We saw Doll Porpoises, and harbour seals, and bald eagles. It was a wonderful day!

We went on the all day tour with Stella and Lily as our guides. We were met at the dock when we arrived by the guides and our group was expertly set up with kayaks and gear. The tour on the water was spectacular as we saw porpoises, sea lions, seals, and numerous eagles along the route. Lunch on a secluded bay topped off the trip. The guides knowledge of the ocean and the animals was second to none. One of the staff (Austin) even took our dog out for a walk mid-day so that we could be out on the all day tour. This place is amazing and we will certainly be back. Value for the dollar can't be beat!

Great day of kayaking with Rebecca and Leanna. We saw a bear, sea lions and helped rescue a waterlogged bald eagle. We had a great day. Guides were very knowledgeable, professional and fun. Highly recommended.

Lovey day kayaking, led so well by Stella assisted by Brad! Really nice pacing of the day, some slow times when we could just look and listen, and other times paddling steadily following the orcas - what a great experience. So much to see and talk about over lunch at a beautiful spot, and as we were paddling. The perfect weather added to a fabulous trip, and it was great to meet new people, share stories, and grab some great photos and memories. Thanks so much North island Kayak! 10/10

Great scenery and wildlife. Good equipment. Not sure the guide has what it takes to interact with (paying) customers, who were mostly left unsure and confused as to where they should be on the water. I felt sorry for a Catalan couple from Barcelona who were subjected to a nonsensical and egotistical tirade regarding rules that were never set out in the first place and were then applied completely inconsistently. It could well have been directed at us too but we weren’t sure what was going on or what to do! It was a beautiful day but we were left with a bad taste at the end it, after being made to feel like naughty school children being told off by a teacher with a massive ego!!

Family of 5 (all adults), we had an amazing full days kayaking with Janae leading the way. She was fantastic and shared so much local knowledge in a friendly and light hearted way. The weather turned a bit tasty on the return trip and Janae took the sensible decision to cut the trip short which was totally understood and appreciated. It's the second trip we have done with the company and would certainly do so again.

What and amazing 4-day trip! Beautiful scenery, comfortable campsites, great food, and wildlife galore - Orcas, humpbacks, bear, deer, eagles, kingfishers, sea lions, porpoises, and more. Our guides were excellent and our traveling companions all fun and excited about the experience (with ages ranging from early 30s to early 70s!). The guides tailored each day to our capabilities and the wildlife opportunities. We had one very rainy day, but it was all part of the adventure... Highly, highly recommended.

We paddled out of Telegraph Cove for the 6 hour tour on the most beautiful wind still and sunny morning in September - during the tour we saw a bachelor sea otter (called Fred), bald eagles, we encountered a curious a black bear during our lunch stop on the beach, and saw a pod of resident orcas, that passed exactly where we had paddled just an hour or so before. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Thanks also to our great guide Jan.

My 4 day experience in July 2023 was so wonderful, it compelled me to come back and paddle for 5 days this year! We paddled close to 80km over 5 days, and even though we had spent 4 days in these waters last year, our guides insured we had new experiences. And Mother Nature looked after the rest - putting on a spectacular show with Humpbacks, Orcas, Seals and Sea Lions, Eagles, and so many water birds! Trip highlights were watching humpbacks breach, hitting the water with the full force of their mass. Pods of orcas gliding by, so sleek and graceful. A group of dolphins charging through the water like a gaggle of kids at a family gathering, doing circles and showing off for the orcas. The sound of the whales breathing. Even for this girl from the Lower Mainland, this was unbelievable - like being in a nature documentary. Camps were so comfy with cots and thermarests, patio heaters - and the food!! So delicious!!! Our guides, Brad and Georgia, were so supportive and helpful, so knowledgeable. We were in the most beautiful environment, with excellent equipment, being given the most amazing experience by truly wonderful guides. 10/10!! This is the summer camp I'd like to visit for as long as I'm able. I'm 61 and see no reason not to plan to paddle for many years to come.

Incredible day out on the water with guides Georgia and Connor. Super friendly, knowledgeable and funny and great local facts about the wildlife, geology and culture surrounding the Johnstone Strait. We saw otters, seals, eagles, sea stars and even ate kelp! No orcas on the trip but luckily we were treated to a pod cruising by in the evening back on the Telegraph Cove boardwalk! A perfect end to a super day in a beautiful place! Great recommendations by Connor to visit the Whale Interpretive Centre and U’mista Cultural Centre over in Alert Bay too 😊
