Kayaking on Vancouver Island

Paddling is a popular pastime in British Columbia and a culturally significant activity for Indigenous communities. 

Kayaks, canoes, dragon boats, and stand-up paddleboards are just some of the self-propelled craft you’ll see out on the waterways. Inland, explore pristine lakes, winding rivers, and rapids. On the coast, navigate protected inlets and fjords. Listening to the sound of a paddle drawing water is a meditative way to experience the wild.
