About
Launch from scenic shores of Gordon Bay Provincial Park for a tour out and around the Gordon Bay island group. Work on your paddle technique as you take in the stunning scenery. Pristine waters await by the islands for those who want to go for a swim!
If you are feeling like going the distance, the tour may continue down the lake to steep moss-covered cliffs that tower straight out of the emerald green waters of Cowichan Lake.
We will start by meeting at the paddle pod to get set up with your paddleboarding gear. A Quick Start lesson on the basics of maneuvering your board will be followed by a talk about navigating to the islands and safety considerations. Prepare for a little adventure!
