We have booked 4 nights accommodations in the Broken Group Islands at the Sechart Lodge for June 27th through the 30th. We will board the Frances Barkley ship in Port Alberni on Monday morning early and arrive before lunch at the lodge. After lunch we will have a few hours to explore the Pinkerton Islands before dinner. Tuesday through Thursday we will have 3 full days of kayaking in the Broken Group. The mileage we will make will depend on the winds. Less wind more miles. Hoping to get in 12 to 15 miles each day. Friday July 1st we can circumnavigate Robinson and Alma Russell Islands returning through Julia Passage. The islands provide good protection from the Pacific swell and winds.
The lodge provides basic double occupancy rooms with a sink but the washrooms and showers are down the hall. Breakfast and dinner are served banquet style in the dining room and your lunch is packaged for your kayak day trip ready to pick up after breakfast. They try to accommodate most diets.
A 50 foot throw bag is required in B.C. waters.
A passport or enhanced driver's license is needed to cross the border.
