The third and final day was an amazing end to a great weekend. Breakfast was gourmet-goodness which has been par for the weekend. The rock formations along De Courcy Island rocked my world. Check out all the cool patterns, caves, and bulges in these rocks. It's so cool!
Then if you needed more convincing of how amazing this trip has been, hear testimonials from other adventurers!

This is the second day of the Edible BC Gourmet Kayaking Adventure. The day started with the best breakfast I've ever eaten - yummy and hearty! It gave us the fuel to paddle over to Valdes Island to the "Cliffs of Insanity." The incredible texture and shapes of these cliffs were otherwordly.
We ate a delicious gourmet lunch at Blackberry Point before heading back to camp. Luckily we beat the rain!
And again- worked up an appetite for a delicious meal of duck! YUM!

This is culinary tourism at it's best!
Imagine...a weekend of exploring the gulf islands by kayak while every meal is expertly prepared by a gourmet chef using local organic ingredients. Yum!
This was Day 1 of our weekend adventure. We launched from Cedar near Nanaimo and kayaked to Pirate's Cove - we got up close and personal with seals and inter-tidal marine life. Passing between sandstone walls and following the shore brought us to camp where we ate the first delicious meal.
To work up an appetite, we hiked around the island and heard mystical tales of The Cult of Brother 12 and hidden treasure.
Dinner was in the dark - but the taste was clear - another fantastic meal!
Check out the video highlights and don't miss day 2 & 3, too!
