We often see deer stepping on the beach and through the forest on Denman Island as we paddle down to toward our stopping spot at Boyle Point Provincial Park. Please bring a lunch and boat snacks for yourself or ask us to bring one for you! This tour is more rugged and exposed than any other of our tours. Participants should be agile enough to walk on rocky beaches as our lunch spot landing availability changes with the tidal water level. We recommend that you are strong enough to paddle for 30-40 minutes at a varying pace as we will cross to Denman in one go.
It’s beautiful to shift the gaze southward to take in views of Lasqueti and further down the Strait of Georgia, however this fetch of water can build into a serious southeasterly. Consider planning to use double kayaks as this widens the safety window in the case that we have more wind than anticipated. If a weather based cancellation is necessary, we’ll look at a Tree Island Tour before other options. Please email lessonstours@comoxvalleykayaks.com for more information or to book with Comox Valley Kayaks on a day that fits your schedule.
