DEPARTURE:

Departs Granville Island, Vancouver First Thing In The Morning

DAY 1: Vancouver (Indian Arm, Deep Cove) / Bowen Island

• Our Howe Sound Boat Tour is a get-away which will take you first to the wilderness of Indian Arm.
• You will transit under the Lions Gate Bridge, see the stunning Vancouver downtown skyline from the water, stop for refreshments at the docks in front of the Convention Center, where the tourists embark on the cruise ships.
• Once in Indian Arm, we will visit the quaint village of Deep Cove, go for a hike in Bedwell Bay and anchor by spectacular waterfalls.
• We then cruise to Snug Cove on Bowen Island in the evening, alongside a cruise ship, with spectacular sunset views towards Vancouver Island. Snug Cove is one of the most scenic marinas anywhere. It really is a special place, peaceful and restful, where you are guaranteed to meet boaters from all over.
• Sleeping accommodations are in the comfy cabins from the Union Steamship Company and dinner at Tuscany restaurant is a must. French chef Christophe prepares delicious food in a very comfortable and rustique atmosphere.

DAY 2: Keats Island / Gibsons / Bowen Island

• The next day takes us to Plumper Cove on Keats Island where you can go for a great hike with stunning views of the Sound, or lay on the beach, and go for a swim if you want.
• We monitor water temperature from Impressions and you can decide! You can also stay on the boat and read a book if you prefer!
• We spend the rest of the day at Gibsons Marina, the Getaway to the Sunshine Coast. 
• Gibsons, home of the famous “Beachcombers” TV series, is a fascinating place to visit with lots of interesting boutiques and superb vistas.
• For dinner, try the Oyster Bar for a great West Coast casual but sophisticated dinning experience.
• Then we cruise back to Snug Cove in the Sunset.
• A visit to Doc Morgans Pub is a must before retiring in your cozy cabin for the night.
