Salmon Fishing

You'll embark on guided world-class BC salmon fishing and saltwater sport fishing trips on one of BC's legendary halibut and salmon grounds. Barkley Sound offers almost year round opportunities with May and June offering young coho and chinook that can weigh up to 25 pounds. Late June and July brings in the annual sockeye run. July, August and September are the best months for kings that can range from 20 to 50 pounds each. In September, the northern silvers arrive. Halibut can reach 100 pounds all year round, but are best in the spring and early summer. Our professional guides will share all their favorite angling spots with you.

Heli-Adventures

Swooping up the face of a waterfall and low along a river bed watching a black bear catch fish are among the many spectacular sights you may see as your helicopter travels through the grandeur that is the West Coast. Your heli-adventure can fly you over spectacular snow-topped mountains, take you to places visited by bear and other wildlife, or weave you through the hundreds of Barkley Sound islands to spot whales, eagles, and dolphins. This is a once in a lifetime experience. Have lunch on a mountain top overlooking the ocean and soaring eagles. This is a trip to paradise.

Marine Safaris / Whale Watching

We offer marine excursions, BC West Coast marine safaris, where whale watching can occur. During this four-hour cruise you will learn about the history, culture and traditions of the area’s original inhabitants, the Nuu-chah-nulth people. Passengers are almost certain to see a bald eagle, sea lions, harbor seals, and may even spot black bear, gray whales, or orcas. Pristine waters will reveal sea anemones, starfish or giant barnacles.
