Our family had such a great time here. The kayaks were a highlight! It was my son’s first time on a kayak and he loved going out into the bay. At low tide we were able to paddle out to some rocks where we saw sea stars, crabs and anemones, and we even saw a seal poke it’s head out of the water a couple of times! The view of the bay and surrounding mountains can’t be beat. We chose this place because of its nearness to the Butchart Gardens, and then put off going to the gardens by a day because we enjoyed staying here by the water. We can’t recommend it highly enough.
