Kayaking Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii, and The Great Bear Rainforest
Kingfisher Wilderness Adventures
British Columbia offers a sea kayaking experience like none other – stunning vistas, lush temperate rain forests, long sandy beaches, incredible wildlife sightings, and vast wilderness areas. British Columbia is one of the premiere destinations for sea kayaking in the world as everything comes together here; an extensive maze of islands, rich First Nations culture, extraordinary wildlife encounters with orcas, humpback whales, bears, eagles and much, much more.
Kingfisher Wilderness Adventures has been running fully outfitted guided kayak tours on the coast of British Columbia since 1999. We have chosen Vancouver Island as our home, and offer various sea kayak tours off northern Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii, and the Great Bear Rainforest for paddlers who are just learning to kayak to those with expedition experience.
We pride ourselves on small group sizes, allowing close personal attention and minimal impact on the environment and the wildlife we view from our kayaks. Kingfisher’s kayak guides are passionate about kayaking and the wilderness and will eagerly share their knowledge with you, ensuring a trip full of memories you will never forget.
As we enter our 23rd year of operation, we hope you will join us on a kayaking trip of a lifetime.
