Gulf Islands Recreation Map

Gulf Islands Recreation Map


Coast&Kayak Magazine's six fold-out maps is designed to give the best scale and overview of each region for use in the living room to plan the trip and on the water to get your bearings. While printed on hardy stock, they are not waterproof so be sure to keep in a protected chart case when on the water. Each map is 22x36 inches and folds to 4x11 for handy storage. All are designed with kayakers in mind and include handy references not included with charts such as campsites, launch locations and scenic features.

About the Gulf Islands: This is the most popular day-trip destination for kayakers in British Columbia, with a multitude of accessible options. With frequent ferry service from Vancouver and Washington state to Vancouver Island, these islands off southeastern Vancouver Island make a wonderful destination, with numerous island clusters with etched sandstone cliffs and draping arbutus and Garry oak trees. Many of the more isolated smaller islands are generally either provincial parks or within the new Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, making for a network of short hops between possible highlights and campsites.
