Campbell River is blessed with some of the most adventurous waters in the world.
The history, the geography and the wildlife combine to create an unforgettable experience. This summer, the Museum at Campbell River is once again offering a series of guided Historic Boat Tours each Sunday during July and August that explore the Discovery Islands and points north.
The next trip is planned for July 12, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., travelling to amazing Desolation Sound.
This tour will stop for lunch at the famous Lund Hotel, a historic village billed as the gateway to Desolation Sound. Considered to be one of the West Coast’s premier cruising destinations, Desolation Sound is an iconic location on the coast.
Summer Sunday trips include Sonora Island (with lunch at Dent Island Lodge), Yorke Island, Hardwicke and the Thurlows (with lunch at Blind Channel). Exploring the waterways of the Discovery Islands provides an insight into how wild this region is.
The cost for these trips vary from $140 to $160, including lunch and interpretive guide. To reserve a seat call the Museum at 250-287-3103. The Museum is offering Historic Cruises in partnership with Discovery Marine Safaris all through the Discovery Islands this summer.
