Desolation Sound - Great For A Sailing Holiday
There are plenty of shorelines, fjords, and mountains the make up the Desolation Sound. It's actually an inlet whose water comes from the deep-water glacier. You can also find the steepest mountain peak in North America, particularly in British Columbia. Sailing in Desolation Sound is a favorite pastime among tourists because of the presence of several nice harbors.
Sailing in Desolation Sound requires good marine skills and navigation savvy as the route follows around jagged coastlines with unpredictable winds funneling down on you, especially in Toba Inlet.
The whole area is a huge marine park and consists of many islands and ocean channels full of life. Most sailors explore Desolation from mid July to late August and as you can expect there are many boaters who visit at this time so marine traffic can be intense. It's quieter in the shoulder seasons with less traffic and more privacy.
Some of the most interesting destinations include Copeland Islands, West Redonda Island and East Redonda Island. The most popular water ways include Waddington Channel, Homfray Channel, Lewis Channel, Pryce Channel and the tricky, Toba Inlet.
Besides the mountain ranges, you can also find beautiful waterfalls. You can go canoeing or kayaking. The freshwater also breeds several types of fish, which would be perfect for sport fishing. One of the most frequented anchorages is the Prideaux Haven. It's a small bay that's filled with countless coves, passageways, and islands. The Laura and Melanie coves are laden with several boats of visitors who wish to explore the area. It's also an excellent point to venture to other locations, such as Saltery Bay Provincial Park and Okeover Arm Provincial Park. You can look for some private relaxation at Powell River.
If you like to add more challenge to your holiday vacation, go to Theodosia Inlet. The water's current flow so fast and the channel can be twisting and narrow. Nevertheless, it's worth the risk, especially when you arrive to the lagoon. Or you can visit Wootton Bay. The place is well protected from elements coming from the west but not from those from southeast or south.
Another interesting location to visit when you go sailing in Desolation Sound is the Copeland Islands. There are seven major islands that compose it, all of which are composed of the wilderness. Thus, if you aren't too comfortable with limited amenities, you may want to forego mountain trailing. Rather, you can bring your yacht charter to any of the anchorages and swim, snorkel, or dive. A wildlife preservation park, Copeland Islands is a home to several animals like sea lions, porpoises, and deer.
Sailing in Desolation Sound also means visiting the scenic Toba Inlet. Located in the western part of BC, there are several coastal mountains and gorgeous waters that make up the area. Kayaking is one of the most memorable activities to do. You can also camp or explore the wilderness. You may even encounter a grizzly bear. It's also located near equally captivating inlets and parks like Bute Inlet and Walsh Cove Provincial Park.
