Sechelt Visitor Centre

Kayaking

The picturesque and calm waters of Sechelt Inlet are ideal for kayaking, whether you want to take an afternoon guided tour, or head out for a week of kayaking and camping, making use of shoreline campsites accessible only by water.

Elsewhere on the Coast, there is a wealth of opportunities for kayakers: launch into Howe Sound from Port Mellon, choose one of many spots up our 80 km of coastline along the Georgia Strait, explore the intricate coves and inlets in Pender Harbour, visit Ruby Lake or Sakinaw Lake, or run the rapids at Skookumchuk Narrows (experts only!). Knowledgeable outfits rent equipment and provide helpful information to plan your time on the water.

West Coast Wilderness Lodge

West Coast Wilderness Lodge was built at the crossroads of four major waterways: Sechelt Inlet, Jervis Inlet, Hotham Sound and Agamemnon Channel. Each has thousands of islands, bays and coves for visitors to explore. Sechelt Inlet is our favourite kayaking destination here on the Sunshine Coast. A narrow inland sea, its forested slopes and historic fishing villages will give you a feel of what coastal B.C. was like in decades past.
