I think it was John Grace who once said "It's all just training for British Columbia". He was referring to the super challenging creeking and multi day wilderness whitewater trips that are located all over this mountainous province. There is a lifetime worth of easy and intermediate paddling too. Whether it is multi day ocean trips, winter whitewater paddling on Vancouver Island, surfing tidal rapids, creeking in the interior, remote trips up north BC offers it all and then some.

Rec Kayak Trips or Routes

View Royal

Main Beach
Thetis Lake - A sheltered lake inside a popular regional park. Other than the two launch points there is no other man-made areas, so one feels surrounded by nature. Easy access and great facilities make this an excellent location for recreational paddling as well as a good flatwater training site.
