Although not seen on every trip to the Nuchatlitz, they are known to swim these waters. On one tour, we were fortunate enough to view a lung feeding Humpback, just a short distance from our kayaks.

The Nuchatlitz has some of the best beaches on our coast. Listening to the sound of the waves, watching the sun go down, with no one else around, gives a sure sense of remoteness.

 Kelp is the fastest growing plant in the world. It can grow 10 inches (30 cm) a day ~ so fast you can almost watch it grow!

 Kelp is an important habitat for the marine life in this area, especial for the abundant and adorable Sea Otter.

 Sealions can be seen year round but are more abundant in the winter and spring before the majority of them head north to their summer homes.

 California and Stellar sealions both spend time in this area.

 The birds above are the Cormorants ~ great divers and a not so good flyers. But hey, you cant be good at everything.

We will be using both single and double kayaks on our tours. All our kayaks are high quality fiberglass kayaks.

 If you are new to kayaking we highly recommend starting in a double kayak with a friend or guide, then switching to a single kayak once you feel more comfortable.

The Nuchatlitz Marine Park is probably our favorite place to paddle. The diversity of small islands, sandy beaches, wild rock formations, sea caves, lagoons and waterfalls, make this a kayakers paradise.

There are plenty of islands to get out on and explore.

 This unnamed island was made up of small stones and sand, with rocks jutting out of the center.

 Sometimes you feel like you have landed on a far off planet where no one has ever been.

The Nuchatlitz is rich with wildlife. It has one of the largest populations of Sea Otters on the coast, chance encounters with whales, sealions and other creatures can happen on each tour.
