Upon entering Esperanza Inlet we made our way to Queen Cove for the night. The Cove was well protected and had several cabins along its shore. The next morning we made our way up Esperanza Inlet passed the community of Esperanza and into Tahsis Inlet. This route allowed us to see some beautiful country asContinue reading “Esperanza Inlet and Nootka Sound”

Kyuquot Sound
Kyuquot Sound was an unexpected surprise. From the community at Kyuquot/Walter’s Cove to the solitude of snug anchorages, to the gorgeous beaches of Rugged Point, we had some amazing days.
Highlights June 1 – 14, 2022
The first two weeks of June saw us finishing our time in the Broughton Islands, enjoy some time and make repairs in Port McNeill and then heading up and around the top of Vancouver Island.
