Your adventure will start in Swartz Bay at the Barnacle Road Government Dock, where you will be transported by Sidney Harbour Cruise ferry to Piers Island. This iconic small island quietly lays between Salt Spring Island and the Saanich Peninsula. This is where your rowing journey will begin. After a welcome snack, a safety briefing, and loading the equipment onto the support boat, you will start rowing towards your campsite approximately 12 to 20km. At your destination and after setting up camp, you will have the opportunity to explore the beautiful surroundings. 

On the second day we will have the best opportunity to explore other islands and see what Island secrets we can discover. Depending on the tides and weather conditions, we may head north or south. Leave early or come back to our campsite later in the afternoon. Each tour is unique in the sense that we let nature and what the group wishes to guide us. One thing is certain: you won’t be disappointed by the scenery!

Your row back to Piers Island will probably take us on a different route. South or North of Portland Island? West or East of Prevost Island? Our options make the return rows different every time. Once on Piers Island, the taxi ferry will take you back to Vancouver Island.
