Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

The BC and Canadian governments and the Aluminum Company of Canada (Alcan) promoted Kitimat around the world With aluminum as the new metal they were building the future The Kitimat Project was the model of modern Canadian ingenuity ndash a feat that proved Canadians were able to surmount the wild Canadian landscape
The Kitimat Project was constructed from scratch records were set innovation was at every turn and the result was the largest smelter in the world and the premier community to go with it Kitimat would be a planned community ndash a suburban utopia so desirable to the worker that a stable work force would be maintained
The Haisla of the region have occupied the land here for many centuries Explorers trappers prospectors homesteaders adventurers and missionaries have all come through in the last 150 years and have met with a mixture of struggle and success Their stories combined represent a shared history that is echoed across BC and yet a unique one to the valley area Many came during the Kitamaat Methodist Mission years staying for a time then moving on The valley area saw its share of families working on their homesteads and men prospecting and trapping in numerous creeks and mountain valleys There was also speculation on the land when the western terminus for the Grand Trunk Railway line was being decided

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

The north coast of British Columbia is well known for its incredible sport fishing Kitimat located at the head of the Douglas Channel one of BCrsquos longest inland fjords provides access to unbelievable salt water fishing adventures
The 90 km stretch of ocean to the Inside Passage has many feeder creeks and rivers including the Kitimat River which produce migrating salmon These well protected waters offer exceptional fishing for chinook and coho salmon as well as some of the largest halibut found on the BC coast
Whether you launch your own boat at MK Bay Marina or book a charter with one of our well equipped guides you will experience majestic mountains a variety of wildlife and an abundance of fishing opportunities
As you experience the salt spray and ocean wind be on the lookout for sea lions eagles orcas humpback whales and dolphins at play On occasion you may observe Kermode bears exploring the shores of the Douglas Channel bald eagles as they pick a salmon from the salt water or dolphins swimming alongside your boat
When the challenges of catching that trophy fish have you exhausted relax in the sulphur free natural hot springs of Bishop Bay Shearwater or Weewanie
Try your luck at catching massive halibut chinook chum cod coho pinks or snapper to accompany your feast of fresh Dungeness crab and prawns
The opportunities are endless here depending upon the species you seek at the time of year you visit us

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced

Offering incredible scenery wildlife viewing opportunities and an awe-inspiring serenity your trip to Kitimat to kayak the channel will be a rewarding one
Whether you are an expert or a beginner or somewhere in between you will have many opportunities to enjoy everything the channel has to offer The Douglas Channel is actually comprised of the main channels of the Douglas and Devastation with smaller connecting channels that boast a kayakers paradise of calm waters sheltered coves and landing options The many creeks waterfalls and interesting rock formations offer incredible photo opportunities as you record your journey of discovery
Though its awe-inspiring views await the Douglas Channel is not for the ill-prepared kayaker Few landing opportunities exist where the channel is at its widest and roughest All kayakers need to plan their routes carefully equip themselves with the required safety gear and register a float plan with someone on land before departure Though a multi-day trip on the channel is one you will remember for a lifetime make sure the memories are good ones
For those who would like to get a taste of kayaking group tours as well as equipment rentals are available and reasonably priced
