Jack and Candace can take you for a hike up Salt Spring's heights for a great view of the surrounding Gulf Islands. Jack provides introductory paddles sessions, advanced strokes and rescue classes, in addition to guided tours. Advanced paddlers can cross to tthe Ballingall Islets bird sanctuary off Galiano. The most common paddle routes are those to the islands in Ganges Harbour. Goat and Deadman Islands are private.
Novices can paddle around Long Harbour.
There are various routes to take from Fulford Harbour. You can put in at Drummond Park and paddle out to the islands at the mouth of the Harbour. A more advanced paddle would be across to Portland Island. But since Salt Spring has several lakes, a fresh water alternative is worth considering, especially if you plan to come by vehicle. This enables them to offer fishing, paddling, swimming and windsurfing for their guests.
