Here is the 'list' of Islands that I was talking about last post that, I or John & I have kayaked around...
If you are wanting to check a map, most of these islands are in the area from the San Juan Islands north to Desolation Sound, quite a few are in the Gulf Islands, some very small others were big enough to pack a lunch and spend the day paddling around.  The scenery is beautiful everywhere.

this is in Princess Louisa Inlet

This is south of Saltspring Island, Satellite Channel area, if you take the ferry to or from Swartz Bay you'll sail through this area.


Look at the hitch hiker I picked up!

OK, now the list (no particular order):

  • Patos Island
  • Succia Island
  • Wallace Island
  • Portland Island
  • Turn Island
  • Satellite Island
  • Curlew Island
  • Cabbage Island
  • Tumbo Island
  • Fox Island
  • Copeland Island
  • Frost Island
  • Jones Island
  • Coyote Island (Baja)
Now that I have started to record these trips I'll be adding more - there are a few in Conception Bay (Baja) that I will get the names of and add.  And since we'll be there again soon! there will be additions posted.  Oh and, this was all done in this 9 foot Necky polymer open cockpit kayak. Now that we have new to us 14 foot Necky Manitou kayaks with covered hatches and skeg, we'll go faster.....and maybe even further?
