Synopsis

A full-colour cruising guide to Vancouver Island's remote west coast by British Columbia's cruising experts. The colourful, information-packed Dreamspeaker Cruising Guides cover the most significant and accessible cruising areas of the southern inside passage, and have become standard references for British Columbia boaters. Volume 6, The West Coast of Vancouver Island will be just as invaluable. The Dreamspeaker cruising companions offer charts, tips and data that enhance the enjoyment and safety of any voyage. The guides feature informative and charming hand-drawn shoreline plans of selected marinas and small boat anchorages, ranging from safe all-weather havens to secluded picnic spots and marine parks. Intended to complement official hydrographic charts, the Dreamspeaker Cruising Guides accurately pinpoint both popular and little-known highlights in British Columbia and Pacific Northwest coastal waters that every sailor, power-boater or kayaker should know. Written in the personal style of a boater's logbook, these guides provide vital information about featured locations, plus notes on recreational activities for adults and children. Here you will find the best spots along the west coast of Vancouver Island from Cape Scott to Sooke including Bull Harbour, the Bunsby Islands and Barclay Sound, with full-colour scenic photographs that showcase the splendour of the Pacific Northwest Coast.
