The store at Squirrel Cove, Cortes Island
GA shooting the rapids at Squirrel Cove tidal lagoon
We awoke today to gorgeous sunshine streaming onto our rear deck in Pender Harbour. After a leisurely breakfast we departed for Squirrel Cove on Cortes Island in beautiful Desolation Sound. We had unusually calm seas and made Cortes in around three hours. On our way we passed the beautiful white sand beaches of Savory Island and the town of Lund at the western terminal of the Trans Canada Highway.
Gord and I kayaked the entire Squirrel Cove after getting well anchored apon arrival. Gord portaged the rocky shoreline with his kayak to shoot the tidal rapids flowing out of a land locked salt water lagoon.
Our boat is anchored next to an old geezer who has been floating around this area now since February. He says that he is going home when it next snows. We feasted on fresh Chinook salmon and corn on the cob and have now settled in for a bit of reading and an early snooze. Tomorrow the rapids!
