Glide through the mirror-calm waters of Prince Rupert Harbour and Kloiya Bay in a sea kayak, weaving among fishing boats, bald eagles, and old-growth shoreline on a guided small-group paddle. The finest way to truly feel the wilderness at the edge of this remarkable port city.
What to expect
After a brief on-shore skills session, your guide leads the group out into the sheltered waters of Cow Bay and Prince Rupert Harbour. The paddle takes you past dramatic rocky shoreline, kelp beds, and frequent bald eagle perches, with the chance to spot harbour seals, otters, and herons at paddling distance. The pace is always guest-led — stop to watch a seal, drift beneath an eagle's nest, or simply absorb the silence of the Great Bear Rainforest coast. Gear, dry bags, and guidance are all included.
