From Quadra Island you can also take another ferry to Cortes Island and visit the lakes, lagoons, beaches and bays. Inland from Campbell River you will find Strathcona Provincial Park, British Columbia's oldest. Activities include hiking, camping, Nordic and downhill skiing, fishing, boating, and canoeing. You will be taken on a two mile trek to a viewing platform to observe and photograph grizzly bears feasting on spawning salmon. These are only a few of the tours to be taken in the area and planned tours are available that take from one hour to a ten day tour of Vancouver Island.
Prices range from zero to a few thousand dollars.
All you need is the time and your imagination.
