Day 1
Depart from Comox for a beautiful 13 nautical mile sail to Manson’s Landing where you can explore the lagoon or hike into Hague Lake for a swim. Stay at Manson’s Landing for the night or head over to Shark Spit or Gorge Harbor where marinas or anchorages await you.

Day 2
Enjoy an easy day en-route to Von Dunop Inlet Marine Park. Numerous anchorages abound in this 3 mile long inlet. Once secured you can explore the lagoon with your dinghy or follow the trail to Squirrel Cove.

Day 3
Head around the North end of Cortes Island for Teakerne Arm where the spectacular photo op of Cassel Lake falls awaits you. Anchor here with a stern line and shower under the falls or hike up to Cassel Lake for a swim

Day 4
A reprovisioning opportunity awaits you at Refuge Cove, just around the corner from Teakerne Arm. Refuge Cove is a unique coastal co-op with a small store, liquor outlet and some mouth-watering homemade cinnamon buns. Stay here for the night or carry on to the anchorage in Roscoe Bay (check the tides as it shallows out in the entrance). The warm waters of Black Lake await you only a 5 minute walk from the anchorage.

Day 5
Enjoy a leisurely cruise to Pendrell Sound where you can experience some of the warmest waters north of Panama. Scenic anchorages await at Oyster Cove and the head of the inlet. Pendrell Sound is renowned for its Oysters and Hieroglyphics.

Day 6
Hoist anchor and set sail to the pride of Desolation Sound, Prideaux Haven. Prideaux Haven is a beautiful maze of anchorages nestled in amongst the majestic coastal mountain range. Enjoy Prideaux or carry on to Tenedos Bay for another evening at anchor under the stars. Tenedos Bay offers a lovely hike up to Unwin Lake for a warm freshwater dip

Day 7
Easing back into civilization we suggest heading over to Lund and exploring what this enterprising community has to offer. Stay for dinner in the historic Lund Hotel or just sample one of the many pastries offered at Nancy’s Bakery. A relaxing way to wind down from a great adventure through Desolation Sound!

Day 8
Depart Lund for a short stop at Savory Island (the jewel of the Georgia Strait) and quick dip before embarking on a brisk sail back to Comox public dock. Relax aboard for your final evening at the Blackfin Pub for a great dinner’s Pub.
