Paddle Saturna Island During the Tour des Îles Festival with a guided Sea Kayaking Experience

The Tour des Îles festival brings visitors to Saturna Island by boat shuttle for a day of exploring one of BC’s most beautiful and unspoiled Gulf Islands. This year, KayakingSkills is offering something extra: a chance to see Saturna from the water.

This special one-hour guided sea kayak tour is designed for festival visitors who want to add a memorable paddling experience to their island day. No prior kayaking experience is needed, and your shoes stay dry. We take care of everything. Just show up, get fitted, and let the water do the rest.

Your guide will lead a small group of up to six paddlers along Saturna Island’s sheltered shoreline, exploring the coastal scenery up close in calm and protected waters. Route and distance are tailored to the group on the day. This is a relaxed, welcoming introduction to sea kayaking in one of the most beautiful settings in British Columbia.

Five departure slots are available on Saturday June 20 and five on Sunday June 21. Slots fill quickly. Pre-booking via FareHarbor is essential.
