Native Totems - Ninstints

Unique only to Gwaii Haanas, the expression of the Totem Pole can be found at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ninstints. Abandoned over a century ago, these totems have stood the test of time as they display the crests and stories of the past. They can also be found in remote villages such as: Chaattl, Skedans, Tian and Kiusta.

"The silent kayak tour in front of the totems at Sgaang Gwaii as the pair of eagles swooped over us is something I will always treasure."
~ Brian Jones, Ottawa

Native Totems

Sea Kayak touring in a Birders Paradise

Gwaii Haanas has over 750,000 seabirds breeding on more than 200 islands and islets, while millions more stop during their migrations. It is the only confirmed nesting site in Canada for horned puffins. There are more eagle nests per kilometre of shoreline than anywhere else in Canada, and the area boasts the highest breeding density of Peregrine falcons in the world!

Canada Camping in the Old Growth Forests

Unlike many Sea kayak Vancouver Island Tours, Gwaii Haanas has no designated campsites, providing guests a true wilderness camping experience. The temperate rainforest and its moss floor provides a restful sleep, while walking among the towering old growth trees speaks of times past and present. Many trees In Gwaii Haanas are older than Christopher ColumbusÕ Great Voyage!

Tides matching the Bay of Fundy!

Queen Charlotte Islands kayaking tours can experience tidal variations that exceed 20 ft in an impressive 6 hours. Free energy for those travelling with the FlowÉ.. These great tide variations also provide our sea kayak trips with the best opportunity of viewing aquatic ecosystems in British Columbia!

Sea Kayaking Gwaii Haanas Park unique Inter Tidal Ecosystems

Sea kayaking Moresby Island eastern shoreline, a shallow channel known as Burnaby narrows, offers sea kayakers an unparallel marine ecosystem. Studies conducted by Parks Canada, have determined that this area contains more than 290 species of marine wildlife. This channel has some of the highest levels of living material, ("biomass") of any inter tidal zone in the world!

Marine Wildlife

The deep waters of the Pacific, and the shallows of Hecate Strait on the east side of Moresby Island, create one of the most nutrient rich water corridors in British Columbia. This provides a migratory path for Humpback, Finn, the endangered Wright Whale and Killer Whales, and home to Pacific White Sided Dolphins, Harbour Seals, and the largest colony of Stellar Sea Lions in BC!
